A custom image of Clint Eastwood's characters from Unforgiven and Escape From Alcatraz
With a career in film that hails back as far as 1955, it's almost impossible for an individual not to find at least one film of Clint Eastwood's they enjoy. Westerns? There's one or two. Monster movies? Does Revenge of the Creature ring a bell? Suspense thriller? It's hard to beat In the Line of Fire. Musical? Yep — Paint Your Wagon. Clint Eastwood has appeared at least once in almost every genre of film, and directed a healthy portion of them to boot.
How Does Frank Morris Escape From Alcatraz? Close The discovery is the genesis of an escape plan, and over time, all four chip away the concrete in their cells with makeshift shovels until they make holes big enough to crawl through. The holes are covered by cardboard during the day, painted to look like concrete. However, Morris knows that simply crawling through a hole won't end well, given how their absence would alert the prison guards.
The escapees hit the roof, scramble down the building and over a barbed-wire fence. Once at the shoreline, they inflate the raft and head into the treacherous waters of the San Francisco Bay and to freedom. When the escape is discovered the next morning, a frantic manhunt ensues which turns up shreds of raincoat and other items belonging to the trio, but no concrete evidence that would support them having drowned or successfully made it to shore.
How Siegel utilizes the characters is another strength of the film. It would have been easy to create an "us vs. them" dynamic in the prison, where the warden and all the guards lack any humanity or care whatsoever, but Siegel doesn't. Yes, there are guards that are simply a**holes, but there are compassionate ones as well, guards who have come to know the prisoners as people, most evident with the guard who hesitates when told to strip Doc of his painting privileges.
6 It came at the right time for Eastwood, who, thanks to his"Man With No Name" Spaghetti Westerns and the Dirty Harry movies, was an unstoppable force in his films. Eastwood was the ultimate tough guy who couldn't be defeated, but Alcatraz became the one foe that posed a real challenge to that ideal. The film also doesn't shy away from its depictions of life for the prisoners, from the warden's dehumanizing actions to the violence of prison discipline.
