The prison film is definitely a sub-jar itself in the cinema, especially the American. And, in this sense, the most famous castle, mythical, alcatraz, of course, served the work of the work, where the best shoulders were chosen the worst.
Fleeing from Alcatrase to Clint Eastwood; Michael Bey’s action rock film; John Borman’s return point; Mission Alcatraz with Steven Segal … A short list of a clean masterpiece that came out in 1962 and director John Frankenheimer: Alcatraz inmate.
Unfortunately, for the famous public, John Frankenheimer, who died in 2002 at the age of 72, was a very solid craftsman. Since he has signed more than a hundred episodes of TV, we debt some big, even very big films that have become a classic: crime with Frank Sinatra and May for seven days, new genres of “political fantasy.” Unusual diabolic surgery. A strong and moving dive in Hillbillies America is another fabulous film, a country of violence. Great War Film by train …
One of the biggest roles of Burt Lancaster
In 1961, for the first time to turn Burt Lancaster with punishment, the latter will become his favorite actor. The following year, they worked together to adapt to the screen, Thomas E. In the book of Swan, based on Robert Stroke himself, nicknamed “Man in Alcatraz cannabis”.
The strid is not exactly a tender … After two of the composition’s murder, he is in prison isolated in Kansa Levenworth prison. One day he found an injured sparrow in the yard and decides to collect it. It ends with treatment and abuse. He will find his own redemption of a very well -known ornithologist, even though he goes to the high security area to the Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary Facility where he cannot take birds …
Released from Stroud’s life expectancy (which will die a year after the release of the film), these wonders are killed by the extraordinary Burt Lancaster, who will also win the Volpi Cup for the interpretation of the best men in the Venice Mostera in 1962.
Four times in an Oscar, a prisoner of Alcatraz, who was a great success in the theaters, also led to Robert Strude’s sympathy with the American society. Even the petitions have been circulated to liberate, to no avail, with one of the most famous detainees of Alcatraz with Al Capon. He will spend 54 beyond the stripes, including 42 isolated, without contact with other prisoners, and 17 in Alcatraz.
If the film involves freedom on the Stroud course (it was in the Leventine penitentiary institution that he has elevated and sold birds and not in Alcatraz) for the fictional reasons, Alcatrazi prisoner is an intellectual, powerful work far from Manichaic speeches.
Very big movie to see (or review!) Prime video.
