Eastwood portrays Frank Morris, the cunning bank robber who masterminded the elaborately detailed and, as far as anyone knows, ultimately successful, escape. Patrick McGoohan is a superb counterpoint as the suspicious warden.
Filmed on location in Alcatraz, this gritty and realistic re-enactment of the true story has all the power one expects from an Eastwood/Siegel movie.

Escape From Alcatraz
I have just seen this movie for the first time, and having only just visited Alcatraz while on holiday in San Francisco, I could relate to the movie so much more. It has a good story-line, and the acting is good, but it's just nice to see that it comes with none of the usual, unnecessary Hollywood rubbish that's in so many movies. I certainly enjoyed this movie, and is well worth watching again. I highly recommend it.
