The Escapist
The Escapist
Great flick.
One of the best prison/escape movies I've seen.
I like the way they edited this together.
It goes back in forth from the present to the future.
Then there's a little twist at the end.
In high school, I thought about an idea for a story similar
to this. It would have been called, "Escapism."
Both this movie and my story idea was based
out of a short story I read in my junior year called,
"An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge."
The filmmakers here pulled it off really good.
Worth your time and dedication.
