Most Memorable Movie Line
The film Cool Hand Luke is responsible for giving birth to one of the most memorable sayings of all time: “What we’ve got here is failure to communicate.” This phrase is actually No. 11 on the American Film Institute’s list of most memorable lines. The saying is so popular it has made quite a few appearances in pop culture including in Guns N’ Roses songs “Madagascar” and “Civil War.”

One additional interesting religious message is from Cool Hand Luke’s prison number, 37. When combined with his name, it results in Luke 1:37 which is from the Gospel of Luke. This is intentional as the portion of text matches with the message of the movie. For example, the text reads ” “For with God nothing shall be impossible.” Cool Hand Luke makes numerous Christ-like sacrifices.
