I have to admit this was well done, thought provoking, and in a way, interesting because it was a true story. And it is showing the never ending limitations of the criminal justice system and fantasy of rehabilitation.

One of the best movie I have seen.And that this Movie is basted on a true story-it makes this move even better.To comper this with today's American jail's it,s a shame.Now most of American jail,s they execute them.ln Florida on a electric Chare, in California the Gas chamber, How sad is this, most criminals can be forgiven to put them back to society where they can take part of a good life. But it's easier to kill a Human being.How gruesame is this electric Chare.The dentist should rod in Hell

For its time this has to be one of those movies that you will never forget. Fantastic experience, Amazing Acting.
