Loved this film, so many great performances. Brad Davis is superb as is the late JøhN Hurt. Randy Quaid plays a great supporting role.
Movie is truly harrowing ,and has hardly aged since I watched when released and revisited recently.

DID TO TURKISH TOURISM, WHAT ‘JAWS’ DID TO SWIMMING IN THE SEA!

Whew. Finally watched this after having it in the queue for awhile. It's a classic and I only know it from the Cable Guy joke. I did not expect it to be as shocking as it was. I figured it was shocking for its day but there is some shit in this movie that I did not see coming. So shocking I was saying "what, what, whattttt" out loud to myself alone. And that Cable Guy scene? Spot on. This movie was definitely not fair to the Turks, I will say that. I mean the whole movie is rough but specifically the trial scene where he calls them all pigs, etc. Not cool. But Oliver Stone and the makers have since apologized more than once and done talks on it so I think it's okay to enjoy the movie otherwise. Yeh?

Incredible screenplay of a young Oliver Stone and awesome BSO of Giorgio Moroder. A few weeks later of this movie the United States and Turkey will begin the dialogue for interchange and free prisoners.

This film was based on the true story of an American that was caught smuggling drugs out of early 1970's turkey. While the rotten rating was 95% positive, I wouldn't say that this was an exceptional film. It was "merely" very good. The feel and the story almost reminded me of Cuckoo's Nest. However, it just didn't have the memorable scenes that made Cuckoo so good. Well, I take that back - there are some extremely well-done but disturbing prison scenes. I wouldn't say that they were that disturbing but my wife might disagree. One other note - it was absolutely bizarre to see a downright skinny Randy Quaid in the film. All of the lead characters were fantastic.
