One of the greats
This is a pure, beautiful film that broke every heartstring it came across. It chronicles the career of a prison guard and the people he encounters.
There is a minor bit of woke, I won't deny, in the "black guys are always innocent and white guys are always racist" portrayals sprinkled in here. As we know, Steven King was on a lot of coke, and probably still is, as he oozes further and further down the spiral of socialist propaganda and creation of social monsters for the world to loathe.
But the film, despite its wokeness, is still old enough to pass as entertainment. There are no feminazis, no political lectures, not LGBTPedo, none of that stuff. It also made more than its mark back in the day. So still worth the watch.
