That's a good one. Nice job!

Thanks

You are welcome!

Such a classic

Yeap !

It is one of the few best movies I have ever seen and one of the movies I would enjoy watching again. The fact that people who have lived in prison for so many years deny normal life when they get out and see themselves as belonging in prison takes the drama genre of the movie on its own. The character stories within the story were quite heartbreaking and instructive. Thank you for reminding me.

Yes one of the top 5 of all time
