Midnight Express
Movie (1978)
Alan Parker's outstanding, harrowing drama based on the true story of an American student arrested for drug smuggling while on holiday in Turkey, and thrown into a prison ruled by a sadistic warder. Controversial themes are boldly dealt with, and while some feel it is all rather simplistic, it's almost impossible to deny the power of the piece. Brad Davis, John Hurt and Randy Quaid head the cast. Oliver Stone scooped an Oscar for his screenplay, while Parker was awarded the Best Director Bafta in 1978.
