Early talkie is a little creaky but enjoyable, with an amazing abundance of future film stars in early roles.

Tongue-in-cheek comedy spoofing prison movies, with delightful performances and story telling.

Interesting early Ford talkie with a Spencer Tracy and Humphrey Bogart. It was pretty interesting and funny at times, but it dragged a bit in the second half.

John Ford paints a picture of America like Norman Rockwell painted, uhhh, pictures: a reflection, a fantasy, people wanted to believe was true (despite evidence to the contrary). So prisons are like summer camps, prisoners simply regular guys who lacked the right chance, yadda, yadda, yadda. Hokum, P.T.Barnum style hokum, sure, and delivered with a smile, but entertaining hokum, yeah? Yeah. Plus, Spencer Tracy as the cocksure, conman type, Mr.Fix-It, and Bogie (yeah, THAT Bogie) as The Kid. Not bad.
