★★★（四星为满分）
据说，真正的比利·海斯于1970年被土耳其逮捕，因试图将大麻走私出境的指控而入狱。他有罪。他最初被判了3至5年的监禁，但后来土耳其当局决定以更严重的罪名对他进行审判。新的判决几乎是终身监禁。这位入狱的年轻大学生要到中年晚期才会被释放，如果有可能的话。
海斯越狱了，越过边境逃到了希腊，写了本关于他经历的畅销书。两年后，电影《午夜快车》上映了，改编自他的书，由布拉德·戴维斯饰演自恋、以自我为中心的海斯
《午夜快车》有一个前期的段落，主角威廉海耶斯因为寒冷拿了监狱里的大私货贩子瑞福里的“货物”被子用来盖，结果被瑞福里联合狱警狠狠的修理了一通，整个脚被警棍打烂。当他从第二天醒来时，他发现自个儿被放置在一个洗漱台附近的房间。那个场景一开始的交代环境的主镜头让人记忆犹新，带着轻微的晃动，画面从上往下摇，昏暗的，带着尘土质感的光线零零散散地分布在空间里，监狱里分不清是清真寺样式还是东正教风格的窗阑被照耀出救赎的感觉，然而紧接着便是主角疲惫的痛苦模样。在那一刻
看评论前写两句，在加拿大的电影频道看的这个片子。看过越狱之后没有非常大的惊异，不过监狱的痛苦我想我肯定不能接受。有想到，现在在加拿大的日子就像坐牢，但是精神上的，不是真正监狱那种肉体和精神的双重折磨。电视上的版本删掉了探监的一部分，但土豆上有完整版的。主题音乐像是在一遍遍的哭泣，忏悔和对无尽头的压抑的控诉。有生之年，能亲身经历监狱的生活，如有机会出狱，才能感受自由的快乐。人在加拿大，生活安逸，精神却无助而孤独。想回家，但又不敢回，人生啊。
上課的時候教授要求寫的....參考了許多此板大大們的影評寫出來的...有興趣看看吧....:) ［劇情透露］
Midnight Express Movie Review
Almost all great films about prison break are not simply action-packed ticket-sellers that seek to thrill the audience. What makes these films great is the depth they went into to explore the darkest and at the same time, the brightest themes of human society and lives. Corruption, violence, sexual abuse, justice, injustice, homosexuality, dignity, love, freedom and hope, all of which are seen throughout the whole film. The setting itself is another interesting topic, meaning the prison, like a microcosm of the society outside. Overall, the film tells a story of man's endeavor to self-redemption and self-justice against odds from the political and structural obstacles of the real world, despite a sensible political undertone against Islamic nations.
So now it's time for me to speak.
What is there for me to say? When I finish, you'll sentence me for my crime.
So let me ask you now:
What is a crime? What is a punishment?
It seems to vary from time to time and place to place.
What's legal today is suddenly illegal tomorrow.
What's illegal is suddenly legal because everybody's doing it.
You can't put everybody in jail.
I'm not saying this is right or wrong.
I'm just saying that's the way it is.
I've spent 3 and half years of my life in your prison.
I think I've paid for my error.
If it's your decision today to sentence me to more years ...
My lawyer ... that's a good one.
He says, ''Be cool, Billy.''
''Be good. I'II get you a pardon, an amnesty, an appeal.''
This has been going on now for 3 and half years.
I've been playing it cool. I've been good.
Now I'm damn tired of being good.
You said I had 53 days left.
Intense and mind-boggling. A seemingly deserving punishment from a stupid mistake turned out to be violating humanity. Humans weren't treated equally as humans sometimes. Sometimes they're benefits and sometimes they're cannon fodders, or just flickering head counts for the accountants. Why is it so simple for people to lose mercy yet so hard to retain justice and good ethics?
The monologue stuck in me is this:
