Failure to Communicate

[@1966gto1000]

Strother Martin(the warden="Captain") should have gotten some sort of award for this. No one could have done it better. Perfect timing, delivery, everything.

[@zanechambers4343]

"Wish you'd stop being so good to me cap'n" haha classic

[@aivokallo77]

Saw this movie for the first time two weeks ago. Recognized the Civil War sample part IMMEDIATELY even though I'm not the biggest GnR fan. Finding stuff like this from older movies is just impossibly cool!

[@davegee7395]

Paul Newman was a great actor. Seen most of his films This would be my fave. He has to be one of Hollywood's best. In my humble opin.

[@krsporlaneff2549]

I read at some place that Cool Hand luke also was the favourite Newman's movie. He fuckin' deserved an Academy Awards (Oscar) for this movie.

[@krsporlaneff2549]

@Randy White I don't know this movie, I will search it and download. It appears a great movie.

[@tonyculp454]

I’ve watched Hombre a hundred times and it’s one of his best performances

[@zacharymontoto9646]

it felt so weird listening to this quote without civil war playing lol

[@boiragirules]

+Zachary Montoto indeed

[@TheJameslehr]

Also SKINNY PUPPY decided to use it along with the clip from the film, altho that's blurred. Song was a live performance of ADDICTION, from the In Solvent Seas Tour.

[@krsporlaneff2549]

Me too. I listen Civil War (best Guns N' Roses music IMO) for the 1st time when I was 10 years old, but I watched the movie for the first time when I was 27.

[@deedeetee3329]

Ross Smith - Yup. Suck has no claim to timeless cool.

[@afonsolimao]

Or Madagascar

[@victoroladuja2416]

Strother Martin... great character actor.

[@julianedge6431]

"Hoodle-dang-hootie-i-doh, hoodle-dang-hootie-ay, hoodle-dang-hootie-i-doh, hoodle-dang-hootie-ay" (Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid)

[@allenmorgan7556]

One of the best lines in movies of all time! I have used Strother Martin's delivery as best as I could many times. Over the years I have become a little better but Martin delivers the line perfectly.

[@julianedge6431]

The line is repeated by Newman, prior to being shot, with the word 'a' before 'communicate'. 'Mis-quote', my arse! Ralph Raffio (author of '15 things you may not know about the Paul Newman classic') is a dick.

[@markrush5942]

cool hand luke... the best movie ever made in the whole history of the goddamn world....

[@mikechiaraluce5010]

Great movie, but must we use the Good Lord's name in vain?

[@Creek_Hunter]

One of the best, agreed.I wouldn't say the best, though.

[@FSB75]

I couldn't agree more. I keep telling my children, "Figure this movie out, and you'll figure me out". It's been my favorite movie for as long as I can remember. This particular quote is overrated in my opinion though. If I had to pick a quote for this movie....."Just standing in the rain, talking to myself". I mean....Paul Newman gives this movie amazing acting, and Strother Martin gets the "iconic quote"? Seriously, just try to buy a Cool Hand Luke shirt without that damn quote.

[@kristoferbatdorf2873]

FSB 75 i dont think its a overrated quote but its not the best in the movie, i do like the standing in the rain talking to myself better. i bet ive watched this movie a 100 times

[@Teddy_Bass]

mark rush Its up there with the best.

[@dreamquesttv]

I've always said that this is one of the top three performances to never be nominated for an Oscar (the others IMO are John Cazale in The Godfather Part 2 and Larry Hagman in Fail-Safe). Martin OWNS the screen every time he steps foot in front of it. Plus, Conrad Hall should've won for this, too (I believe he WAS nominated); every frame is like a painting. One of the most beautifully photographed films of all-time!

[@pointsoflightradio9785]

Oscars are mostly bullshit politically motivated awards

[@Chosimba13]

Luke's rebuttal to the cook at the end was cold.

[@BethHarmon-yh8ms]

But funny as hell. I think the cook trustee, maybe not as up the line as Carr, but he was definitely in the graces of the bosses.

[@aaronvargas5498]

I remember when i was 12 watching this with my mom now im 20 and still love watching this movie !

[@markrush5942]

the best movie ever made...

[@bigstimpycat1]

love the snl version of this set in a kids' summer french language camp featuring bill murray! "la chat est petite!"

[@Jurassic0Al]

I wish you'd stop being so good to me, Captain.

[@johnjordinsr.2117]

communications is a key to a successful relationship

[@unclemonty3881]

any man failing to communicate spends a night in the box

[@scoogy2]

Strother Martin - one of my favorite actors!

[@taylorpack2839]

I always crack up at the guy behind the captain lol his face is like “poor bastard” 😂😂😂😂

[@SadSadToaster]

I keep waiting for the music to start...

[@mewisemagic]

What music?

[@SadSadToaster]

Guns n Roses: Civil War

[@mewisemagic]

Oh! Okay.

[@hamidalvrz6964]

The same idea happened to me hahaha, only in my mind

[@manents22]

HAhaha I was waiting here like

[@mickeymousebiker1]

I never forgot Strother Martin's famous line. I remember seeing this flick (first-run) in 1967. That was about the same time I checked out Hells Angels on Wheels (with Jack Nicholson).

[@darylpearson67]

My fave movie quote of all time....from the 60’s...long before Axl was even thought of

[@richieerich5813]

Add to that total enjoyment of the dialogue without it being a precursor for another medium

[@itinerantbabbs1284]

The "failure to communicate" is famous, but the line after that is the most important. Some. Men. You. Just. Can't. Reach!!!

[@trifectafloatern2211]

I love this quote!

[@stephenmartinez9355]

I'm shakin' it, boss.

[@chinamanschance8701]

This was like my go-to-movie as a kid.

[@nikirk101]

best film ever

[@biggootz]

Always on the list of the greatest movie lines.

[@henrick_the_lover]

That “Blackjack” the Captain hits Luke with is a lead slug inside a hard leather pouch. They are devastating.

[@blackholeentry3489]

Of course you do realize this is just a movie and this blackjack contained duck feathers only!

[@marioncobretti8589]

Great scene, great movie.

[@Jord850827]

One just one of the greatest scenes in movie history but plenty rival it

[@robertnewman7135]

Strother Martin... hell of a difference between that and up in smoke

[@theangryyorkshireman7671]

Look at your young men fighting....

[@itsbosco0222]

The Angry Yorkshire Man look at you're women crying

[@luudin7586]

Look at your young men dying

[@itsbosco0222]

[@unclemonty3881]

Any man with a set of chains gets a night in the box.

[@Nico35001]

Whaz' so civil 'bout war anyway...

[@jimmyd10100]

all time classic movie. like the old cars, and chain gang. paul newman and george kennedy were great in the movie. " Nobody can eat 50 eggs". My Boy " LUKE".

[@jensen4800]

When he started talking I forgot I was watching this video and started expecting the music to start playing. And when it didn't I was so confused.

[@vitorbravo5249]

Hahah same to me lolololl x'D

[@unclemonty3881]

You spend one night in the box you got you got yourself a set of chains. You spend two nights you got yours self two sets. You ain't gonna need no third set cos your gonna get your mind right, and I mean right!

[@Quasimodo1957]

thank God!...the full version. Thanks ginpole!

[@GrumblingGrognard]

Surly the most famous scene of the entire movie.

[@ArchDragon888]

"Are these the magic words?"- the other guy

[@sergkaizen5342]

I had to produce a 1000 word essay on cool hand luke back in high school. Later in life I had the privilege to meet share a sam adams and briefly discuss not only this but a few of mr newmans films and racing career. Class act regular guy

[@paulward6717]

Strother Martin always played those high pitched voice demented guys....great actor.

[@cruachan55]

Still my all time fave movie , the sound of one man breaking another mans spirit , the worst sound .....\

[@sidDkid87]

1:54 BEST exchange: Dog Boy: "You know ya' know you're gettin' so bad i could track you myself" Luke: "Yeah, well that oughta be easy for a genuine son of a bitch"

[@itsgr82bdum34]

1:24. The most famous movie quote of them all.

[@locust76]

Oh my god, I always thought that was some *little old lady* saying that quote!

[@HBInHD.]

DUDE, so did I.

[@krsporlaneff2549]

I never taught that was a lady, but I taught that Strother Martin was a member of the band. Seriously. When my sister bought the CD (1996, I was 10 years old), she shows me the "book cover" before plays the music and I saw the Strother Martin name credited at the end of the Civil War lyrics - and Strother always reminds me a male name (I live in Brazil). Well, at 10yo I didn't speak English and I also didn't know that "What we've got here" is a quote from a movie - in Brazil nobody calls it "quote", we tell "famous phrases".

[@rddav1]

Watch the movie, please!

[@brendanhalpin8432]

what we've got heyuh is failyuh to comunkay.

all the time i thought that was Axl, man this is amazing

[@SW-kp5zc]

Because what we have here failure to communicate and that the way he wants it and it’s so true

[@kuehnel16]

We need more of this instead treating them like guests at a 5 star hotel

[@grumpygenx9864]

I miss Paul Newman & Strother Martin, great actors that never took their celebrity for granted, unlike the current crop of thespians today.

[@galaxymusicplus3078]

[@olskoolloggin9761]

Well looky here👍👍

[@SW-kp5zc]

Absolutely!!

[@j.e.8442]

Seems like a lot of people here because of GnR. Go and watch the movie so you can be here because of your nice taste in movies

[@jondstewart]

A northern Florida post-WW2 chain gang looks more like California’s Central Valley, but the audience are made to think it’s the backward rural south in a time when Robert Elliot Burns’ testimony about the chain gangs made them make it easier.

[@queenfanpiper6299]

Classic Strother Martin.

[@ViTo_DEE]

Well...i thought that quote came from a heavily set, black school teacher...this has blown my mind

[@josm75]

Sorry i dont understand that much english,please can someone write what Cool Hand Luke says in her speech?! Thanks.

[@josm75]

Thank you i saw it on the net. Its Cool Hand Luke

[@josm75]

Thank you *****​

[@krsporlaneff2549]

Pelo seu nome, presumo que seja brasileiro (que nem eu), português ou angolano, então vamos lá. "O que temos aqui... é uma falha de comunicação. Você não consegue atingir alguns homens. Então acontece o que aconteceu semana passada, da maneira que ele quis... e bom, ele mereceu isso. E eu não gosto disso mais do que vocês, rapazes!" Strother Martin se refere ao fato de Paul Newman (o "Cool Hand Luke" do título do filme) ter tentado fugir da prisão após desafiar o carcereiro. Se quiser baixar o filme pra assistir, não vai se arrepender, porque é um ótimo filme.

[@ozzyosbourne7793]

At first I thought Axl said those lines, I also thought the lines where distorted in the song... didn't know the actor actually sounded like that.

[@heltonm.c9129]

what is the name of the movie?

[@jondstewart]

If the warden had just cut Luke some slack in the beginning making him stay at the camp when his mother died to do some chores around the place under Carr, maybe this wouldn’t have happened. But he was a slimebag that wanted to exert dominance and control in a nice way. Putting Luke in the hotbox for 2-3 days for nothing he did wrong simply because his mother died was his way of saying “you keep going, but I’ll show you who’s boss!”
