    My friends watched the movie, and it was forbidden for me to choose gay movies when choosing a movie. Later, the two of them chose to come to this movie and watch it slowly... Oh, I will go, you two are really good. The film is good, ridiculous, powerful, and the hero is like...

    The criticism of the judicial system and the excavation of human nature are quite excellent. Except for the dramatic ending at the end, this is a prison break film that is not inferior to Shawshank. Samsung and a...

    Fucking awesome! The British uncle picked this DVD, he saw it in the cinema more than 30 years ago. I asked him what MIDNIGHT EXPRESS meant, and he said that MAX said that if you want to escape from prison, you can only rely on MIDNIGHT EXPRESS. MIDNIGHT EXPRESS is a moral, describing the high feeling of drug use. The uncle said he didn't take drugs because of this...

    Saw billy hayes, the real protagonist behind the movie last night, the man who actually escaped from a turkish prison. The movie simplifies the process of his escape from prison and adds some distorted values. He never said anything like hating Turkey in court He didn't kill in prison, but the scene where his girlfriend came to visit him in prison and he let his girlfriend take off his clothes and let him watch jerking off was...

    The originator of prison escape movies?

    You must add the label of 1978 to evaluate this film fairly, because "Shawshank's Redemption" is too jewel in the front.
    I like this dark but very textured picture, Turkey, Istanbul, full of ancient mystery Elements, the shots of several city glimpses are very fascinating. I
    don’t know if this film...

    Shocking monologue

    So now it's time for me to speak.
    What is there for me to say? When I finish, you'll sentence me for my crime.
    So let me ask you now:
    What is a crime? What is a punishment?
    It seems to vary from time to time and place to place.
    What's legal today is suddenly illegal tomorrow.
    What's illegal is...

Midnight Express quotes

  • [first lines]

    [Susan makes her way through a line at an airline checkpoint]

    Susan: Excuse me... Excuse me... Excuse me... Excuse me.

    [she reaches Billy in line]

    Susan: Nervous?

    Billy Hayes: No.

    Susan: Geez, I hate flying.

    Billy Hayes: It's something I ate. I think I've been poisoned.

    Susan: Or you're just excited about getting home.

    Billy Hayes: No, I think it's the baklavas.

    Susan: I told you not to eat 'em.

    Billy Hayes: Look, I gotta go to the john again. You go on through and I'll catch up to you, OK?

    Susan: So I'll wait.

    Billy Hayes: No, go. I'll... I'll catch up to you. I'll... I'll only be a minute. OK? OK?

    Susan: OK.

  • Mr. Hayes: All right, Billy. I know it sounds tough, but - we are going to get you out! I promise you. I don't want you to get stupid and pull anything. They can play with your sentence. All right. Now, I'm putting 500 dollars in the bank. Anything you need, you write. There's food here. There's candy. And there's writing paper. Books. Cigarettes. Soap. Toothbrush.

    [Empties bag onto table, slams it down]

    Mr. Hayes: I've been writing insurance policies for 30 goddamn years and now I've got to see my own son - Jesus. Jesus! Billy, if I could be where you are... I'd be there.

    Billy Hayes: I love you, Dad.

    [Guards take him away]

    Mr. Hayes: [to Hamidou] You take good care of my boy, you hear? Or I'll have your fuckin' head, you Turkish bastard!
