À propos de ce film

When Luke Jackson is arrested for drunkenly vandalizing parking meters, he is sentenced to serve time on a prison chain gang. Although the warden, guards and prisoners all try to break Luke's spirit upon his arrival, it soon becomes clear that Luke is not about to play by anyone else's rules. He eventually earns the respect of his fellow inmates by refusing to back down in a fight, and he earns their friendship by figuring out a way for them to get their hard labor done in half the time. Luke eventually becomes a symbol of hope and resilience for his fellow prisoners, but the more he becomes revered by the inmates, the more he becomes a symbol of rebelliousness that must be stamped out by the guards and the warden.

Notes et avis

This movie is a CLASSIC my top ten movie they ,.probably make a remake off this film and spoil it another classic movie is papillon true,story shame they still don't make good.,old classic movies today keep shaking that Bush ,

This is truly one of the all time greats. Paul Newman is outstanding in this tale of non-conformity and 'world shaking'. Do yourself a favour and watch it.

One of my all-time top 10. Currently sitting at No.1, having been there from when I first saw it, 30 years ago.
