Who is the toughest in comparison? That man is Papillon!
The process of the protagonist's escape from prison is really inspirational. The hard-working protagonist was deceived twice. Finally, in the middle and late stages of the movie, it finally reached a climax, and he was caught again near the end. The protagonist endured in prison, no matter what kind of torture he suffered I am really deeply impressed by the spirit of the protagonist, no matter how serious the crime he committed, he...

A very old prison break movie. They are abandoned prisoners who can only leave the prison after serving their sentence, but cannot leave the island. The male protagonist spends his entire life in a cycle of being imprisoned and escaping from the island, and he uses his life to pursue freedom. The result seems to be no longer important, what matters is the process of escape, the process of pursuit. The film is not ups and downs, it can even be said that it is a bit long, but there are many...

The most solid directing style, the most vivid performance, the most awesome photography composition, the most true story, Papillon is each of us, always failing in the face of life, always powerless in the face of fate, struggling to survive in order to survive. In the mechanical version of life, we are tortured by the system and do nothing, but those of us who persisted until the end and did not give in became great men. The soundtrack of the film is the most thought-provoking and the...

This movie is a bit old. There are several places where the picture is a bit bloody, giving people a feeling of depression or collapse. It is about the protagonist who keeps escaping from prison, from young and strong to full of gray hair, still not giving up, and even the last time he survived with a slim hope.
Every time he escaped from prison, the price he paid was heavier, and even so, he still did not give up. I would also think that even if he succeeded in escaping in the end, it is...

After watching this film, I couldn't help but think of the phrase "people are born free, but everywhere they are in chains".
Papillon had planned a prison escape plan from the very beginning, but his escape failed again and again. He was imprisoned by a single person for countless years, and was almost facing the death of his life. Each of his escapes did not have too much technical content and sophisticated arrangements, but it was this act of risking his life that most bluntly and simply...

If a person is deprived of even his basic right to see light, then he is really not far from death. "When desire is restrained, the level of personality can be...

The value of life is not the result, every struggle is destiny itself. When Papillon floated on the sea and shouted, "Bastard, I'm still here!", he was the coolest...

It feels better than The Shawshank Redemption. Since then, I have watched escape films. I will never give up for freedom. No matter how much it costs, I have to take risks in exchange for the most precious freedom in life. Every escape is very brave, the last one is the most intense, human beings have no right to set up prisons and treat people with such a cruel way to light people, good movies I...

Escape from prison with life, longing for freedom to the point of madness, that kind of obsession is...

Papillon was not as lucky as Jean Valjean to meet a truly loving bishop, but bumped into a nun who was no different from a greedy jailer. Fortunately, Papillon's soul finally got eternal freedom, so he couldn't help but say "Hey you bastards, I'm still...
Dega: [as Papillon is going to jump from the cliff to escape] You'll be killed. You know that?
Papillon: Maybe.
Dega: Please don't do it.
Papillon: Funny, you and me ending up here. We're the only ones left. Do you ever wonder about it?
Dega: No.
Papillon: I do.
Dega: Did you hear about my wife? She married my attorney. Or, else, he married her. Although, actually, it doesn't really matter. I mean, it all works out to the same thing. Don't you think?
