監獄電影中的代表作，改編自真人真事。桀驁不馴的青年勞勃斯．特勞德被判終身監禁，某日有一隻生病的小鳥飛進他的牢房，在他細心呵護下竟然將小鳥醫好了。他從此在獄中發奮研究，成為國際知名的鳥類學家。期間他要對抗過分保護他的母親和粗暴的監獄長，也依舊不改其志，最後透過作家湯姆．加迪斯將他的傳奇故事流傳於世。導演約翰．弗蘭肯海默以嚴謹手法詮釋這個基本上相當靜態的故事，雖然沒有一般逃獄電影的緊張刺激動作，但氣氛依舊緊湊動人。蘭卡斯特充分掌握住主人翁的氣質和感情，扮演獄友的特利．薩瓦萊斯亦十分搶戲。

Filmed on location at Alcatraz Island, this two-part "whole story" actually concentrates on a handful of the denizens behind the cold grey walls of "The Rock". Michael Beck plays the real-life Clarence Carnes, an Oklahoma Choctaw Indian said to be the youngest man ever incarcerated in the notorious maximum security prison. Serving a 99-year sentence for a gas station holdup and murder, Carnes makes periodic attempts to escape, the final attempt being the most violent. Many of the subordinate characters are fictional (as are most of the details concerning Carnes' escape efforts); the one exception is Robert Stroud, the "Birdman of Alcatraz", here portrayed by Art Carney as a gentle, kindly philosopher. Telly Savalas, a costar of the Burt Lancaster vehicle Birdman of Alcatraz, also guest starred in the 1980 film. Originally titled Alcatraz and Clarence Carnes, this made-for-TV movie wavers between gritty realism and "I'm bustin' outta here!" artifice.
