Where was Cool Hand Luke filmed?
1967 film directed by Stuart Rosenberg
Cool Hand Luke (1967) was filmed in Jacksonville, Stockton, Lodi, San Joaquin River and Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, 5 places named in its Wikipedia article, in the United States. Wikidata itself records the shoot only as California. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a statement, and every claim on this page says which it is.
Places per Wikipedia's article
The article names 5 places. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Places whose own article says it was shot there
1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this film as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this film’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

Recorded only at country level
Wikidata also records this film as shot in California, without saying where. Those statements are true but unmappable (a pin in the middle of a country would claim something nobody wrote), so they are listed here instead of guessed at.
