Did You Know?
| Trivia | The scene where Thorne makes a television appearance in jail is based on a true event. Jeremiah Denton was a prisoner during the Vietnam War and appeared in a television interview in 1966. He spoke that he was being treated well, but passed on the message "Torture" by blinking Morse code. See more » |

| Quotes |
Joe:
