Jail-Break!

Happy New Year. Movienight resumes after it's Winter hiatus with a series of jail-break spectaculars.

January 3rd: Brute Force
January 10th: Escape From Alcatraz
January 17th: Le Trou
January 24th: Papillon
January 31st: Riki Oh: The Story of Ricky

Just to mark your calendars, 'Escape From Alcatraz' has the McGoohan factor going on. This is the third time 'Story of Ricky' has popped up on the Movienight list, but since it's the best movie ever made it pretty much makes sense.
