I don’t know if I’m thinking too much. I think the point of view of this film is too one-sided. It neither shows the situation in the United States nor gives the Turks a chance to speak. Isn’t this demonizing the Turks, and the male protagonist is indeed smuggling It's true that drugs are used, and others are not allowed to deal with him in accordance with the...

This film was actually shown in Turkey, and I was surprised by the courage of the Turkish State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. If it was the other way around, the Americans might not be able to stand the exposing themselves of the other people. Brad Davis is another grandfather of brad pitt....

Aside from the political ideology, it is a very depressing and desperate prison escape movie, but the black Turkey is too simple and rude. Brad Davis is like Channing Tatum in the first half, and Pitt in the second half is like 12 monkeys, and has a same-sex plot. Is it because he looks too GV, and he was also cast by Fassbender. Had a same-sex drama, but unfortunately died of late AIDS at an early...

Roger Ebert's film review translation
★★★ (Four stars for full score) It is said that the real Billy Hayes was arrested by Turkey in 1970 and imprisoned on charges of trying to smuggle marijuana out of the country. He is guilty. He was initially sentenced to 3 to 5 years in prison, but then the Turkish authorities decided to try him on...

[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.
