Summary: 4 Stars
Clint plays it cool in this movie and having been to Alcatraz a few times, it really hits home as to how these guys could have escaped the Rock.
Summary of Escape From Alcatraz
Frank morris and two brothers plan their 1962 escape from the rock-island prison. Studio: Paramount Home Video Release Date: 04/11/2006 Starring: Clint Eastwood Bruce Fischer Run time: 112 minutes Rating: Pg Director: Don SiegelOne of Clint Eastwood's two most important filmmaking mentors was Don Siegel (the other was Sergio Leone), who directed Eastwood in Dirty Harry, Coogan's Bluff, Two Mules for Sister Sara, and this enigmatic, 1979 drama based on a true story about an escape from the island prison of Alcatraz. Eastwood plays a new convict who enters into a kind of mind game with the chilly warden (Patrick McGoohan) and organizes a break leading into the treacherous waters off San Francisco. As jailbird movies go, this isn't just a grotty, unpleasant experience but a character-driven work with some haunting twists. --Tom Keogh
