Escape from Alcatraz
Description
It is the story of the federal prison that is not completely penetrable throughout the ages. It is the prison of Alcatraz, which has been broken once in history. The barriers of that federal prison, once fortified in history for twenty-nine years, have been broken by three criminals, Al Capone and 'Berdman' Robert Stroud. This may have been the time the three prisoners managed to break their belts, but this may not be repeated over the centuries.

It's an austere depiction of the tedious routines of prison life, and of the courage and strength of spirit needed in coping with unpleasant warders, tough fellow-inmates, and a life sentence.

What Mr. Siegel has made is fiction, a first-rate action movie that is about the need and the decision to take action, as well as the action itself.

Eastwood adds a lot of grit to this entertaining prison flick.

Escape from Alcatraz was the last of five films that Don Siegel directed with Clint Eastwood, and it's the end of an impeccable track record.

Quiet, tense prison break drama has violence, profanity.
