Days in prison

Write a few sentences before reading the comment. I watched this film on the Canadian film channel. I haven't been surprised after seeing the escape, but I think I can't accept the pain of the prison. I have thought that living in Canada now is like going to jail, but mentally, it is not the physical and mental torture of a real prison. The TV version deleted part of the visit, but the full version is available on Tudou. The theme music is like crying over and over again, confession and endless repressive accusations. In the rest of your life, you can experience life in prison first-hand. If you have the opportunity to get out of prison, you can feel the joy of freedom. People in Canada live a comfortable life, but their spirits are helpless and lonely. Want to go home, but dare not go back, life.

Frequent, lengthy Turkish dialogue without translation to reinforce the sense of alienness and otherness, when in fact Billy is the alien to this land. The tension, the burning, the torment, the heat, the lengthy and even the joy are there , and they are all in place, but at the end of the film, it is inevitable to ask questions. Apart from telling the audience that Turkey is very corrupt, corrupt and arrogant, does it have more thought about this incident? In the sense of film aesthetics, Midnight Express in 1978 can easily surpass Shawshank Redemption in 1994, but its text is only presented, and its depth is greatly reduced. Shawshank's 16-year-old prison film could have become a classic. buried.
