Director: Stephen Wallace
Genres: Drama
Rating:

Yes, Stir is a prison picture, but don't be put off by the seeming flippancy of its slangy title. Ben_Jewson based his screenplay on his own experiences while incarcerated. Jewson spares us nothing: the gleeful brutality of the guards, the sexual outrages in the cells, the grim future in store for those "lucky" enough to be set free. The film culminates in a riot, clearly inspired by TV news footage of Attica. Stir proved an impressive debut for Australian director Stephen_Wallace. Hal Erickson, Rovi
