This is one hell of a chase scene, especially for 1932.

Don't think I'd ever speak to my idiot brother (who actually put that Allen was a fugitive IN WRITING) again, honestly. #TCMParty #IAmAFugitiveFromAChainGang

A very striking thing about #IAmAFugitiveFromAChainGang is how it shows that rehabilitation never was and still is not the goal of incarceration. #TCMParty

There's that unfortunate phrase that pops up occasionally in films of the 30s: "Why not? I'm free, white, and 21!" 🫤

When it was made, #IAmAFugitiveFromAChainGang was a hard look at the then-current Southern prison system. Since then, it's been a look back at harsher times. Today, it might be a preview of things to come. #TCMParty

If you’ve never seen #IAmAFugitiveFromAChainGang, strap in for a wild ride. It’s a still-shocking film with some great escape scenes. One of Paul Muni’s best performances. #TCMParty

The greatest drunk purchase of my life: abebooks, 2005... Classic #WarnerBros. screenplays printed in the 1970s.

(Apart from #IAmAFugitiveFromAChainGang; got that in Manchester Waterstones in 1999).

MOVIE QUOTE OF THE DAY:
“The state’s promise didn’t mean anything . . . Their crimes are worse than mine. Worse than anybody’s here. They’re the ones that should be in chains! Not we!”

Though he later became a bit of a cliche for his "prestige" biopic roles, Paul Muni had a pretty good 1932 with two classic films, #Scarface and #IAmaFugitivefromaChainGang. #TCMParty
