Cool Hand Luke's steak house closes in Merced. What is the first thing that springs to mind at the mention of the name Cool Hand Luke, of course it's Paul Newman who portrayed this character in the 1967 movie. However, today things are different because it's not about Newman and the movie, but about restaurants and food.
Cool Hand Luke's steak house is the 3nd restaurant to occupy the same building on Olive Avenue in Merced which sadly has announced it is closing. There will be a lot of people with rumbling bellies upset to hear of the news, but that's the way the cookie crumbles in this trade if you like.
Before the famous named restaurant opened, a Chevys Fresh Mex Restaurant was in the building but that closed its doors to the hungry public in May 2006. Cool Hand Luke's opened in the month of July of that same year.
About Cool Hand Luke the Movie
Paul Newman was married to Joanne Woodward and nominated for an Oscar and George Kennedy received one for his efforts in this allegorical prison drama. Luke Jackson played by Newman is sentenced to a 2 year stretch in jail on a Florida chain gang after police arrest him for drunkenly defacing parking meters.
Luke Jackson is no pushover and lived his life like a cougar and this he proves when he's behind bars. While the avowed ambition of the captain (Strother Martin) is for each prisoner to "get their mind right," it soon shows in Luke's behavior that he is not about to give in to anybody. When Jackson is challenged to a fistfight by fellow prisoner Dragline (George Kennedy), Luke simply refuses to give up, even though he's brutally beaten. And who can forget the hard boiled eggs, all fifty of them that was pushed down his throat.
Paul Newman passed away on Friday, September 26, 2008 after losing his battle with cancer. Although he died Paul Newman many will remember him as Cool Hand Luke the man they couldn't break.
