One of Woody's better films, maybe not up to 'Sleeper', but good nonetheless. Great lines in the narration, too, such as, "The prisoners were fed one hot meal per day: a bowl of steam." Parodying 'Cool Hand Luke', watch for Woody receiving the ultimate chain-gang punishment: a night in the box with an insurance salesman.
