Whether acting or directing, Academy Award winner Clint Eastwood* (Gran Torino) always manages to make it gritty and keep it real. And it doesn�t get more real than this fact-driven thriller starring Eastwood as Frank Morris, the cunning bank robber who masterminded the only successful escape from Alcatraz�s infamous maximum security prison. In 29 years, the seemingly impenetrable federal penitentiary, which housed Al Capone and �Birdman� Robert Stroud, was only broken once � by three men who were never heard from again. Filmed on location at Alcatraz and directed by Clint�s frequent collaborator Don Siegel (Dirty Harry), this tough, taut reenactment of the true story has all the intense character study and sheer power that mark Eastwood�s finest work.
