Movie synopsis

When Brubaker (Robert Redford) comes to a small state prison to be its new warden, he's horrified by what he sees. Prisoners are sold as slaves, and even decent food can't be obtained without cold, hard cash. So the enraged warden tries to set matters right...but the more he reforms, the more enemies he makes with the townspeople who have benefitted from the corruption. Soon Brubaker's in big trouble--and it looks as if no one is powerful enough to help. This powerful drama received an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Screenplay.

This is a definite must for anyone who enjoys a good prison movie! This movie is one of my absolute favorites and makes for good watching when you're in the mood for a straight forward, good guy versus bad guy kind of flick. Can definately be more of a guy's movie, but it's still an excellent film. Well scripted and well shot. I recommend it.

Another classic with Robert Redford!!! This is a classic prison movie, also bought Cool Hand Luke as well, another hit. But nothing beats Redford in Jermiah Johnson.
