I thought this movie was excellent. The following things were great, acting, script, directing, production, music and storyline. Stephanie Zimbalist, was great in this one.
Big spoilers coming up! This true story of a mother, Lynn Sachfer (Stephanie Zimbalist) who unknowingly breaks the law by committing racketeering when she starts her own management company. She is found guilty and eventually sentenced to 10 years in the brutal maximum security Delory Women's Correctional Facility. While incarcerated she discovers that most of the guards are just as bad as the inmates and that very little effort is being made to correct the inmates. Most of the guards, except for Shelia and a few others are sick perverts who not only stare and spy on the women when their showering, changing and being searched, but also commit others sick and inappropriate acts. These include, rape, sodomy, abuse, prostitution rings and special privileges and gifts in exchange for sexual favors.
Above all though, this was a great movie. Kudos to the cast, crew and filmmakers. Two Thumbs Way Up!
