When The Truth Won't Set You Free
Now I don't normally go for dramas because I prefer the more light hearted stuff, but this was a good movie from the early 70's. It feature Steve McQueen who is desperate to escape from prison. McQueen is tough as nails and is a natural born leader, but gets ripped off more then once trying to escape. As punishment he ends up spending 7 years in solitary confinement and is forced to survive on bugs. The entire movie did a good job of showing how tough it really would be to spend your whole life in prison. With the entire movie focused on escape, you can't help but expect some huge uplifting moment, but the film ends with too many unanswered questions.
