I won't add anything special to the two other comments. Yes, this TV product is a little masterpiece directed by the excellent Paul Wendkos, a TV vet who had nothing more to prove. But I'd like to say two things that the other users have not mentioned. First, Paul Krasny already made a TVM in 1980, starring Telly Savalas as the lead in ALCATRAZ THE WHOLE SHOCKING STORY, a powerful feature too. And the second thing concerns the actor David Morse, who played in another "Alcatraz" movie several years later: THE ROCK...
Another film, another cast, but still about Alcatraz island.
Paul Wendkos at his very best.
