What does the title 'Nobody's Fool' mean?


I suppose the readers of the novel could best answer this question.
But, all thoughtful input is welcome.

- Where does the expression (it's an old common expression) come from?

- How would you define the expression - generally?

- Finally, how does it apply to this film and how does it help us to understand Newman's character?


I've got my own ideas (which I will share), but I'd like to hear others.

thank you
