BRUTE FORCE (1947) - March 25, 2012
About a group of prisoners who decide to escape, mostly to get away from a particularly brutal guard, this was a really well made prison movie. You just can't go wrong with a good prison movie; there's something about cramming a bunch of desperate guys of low moral fibre into a small space that they can't leave that's rife with dramatic possibilities. It helps that the evil guard was played pretty much perfectly by Hume Cronyn -- you really hate the guy. ***
