Description

What we’ve got here is failure to communicate. Stick it to the man with the ultimate anti-establishment classic, with an overwhelmingly charismatic turn from Paul Newman as a prisoner who refuses to follow the rules. Nominated for four Academy Awards, including one for the late Lalo Schifrin's always-compelling score, this universally beloved film demands to be seen big and loud!

The Pitch

The whole thing depends on Newman's blue eyes, easy grin, and ability to appear charismatic but never cocky.
