Tough stuff. Brubaker is a hard-bitten and rather depressing prison-reform movie. What's so hard about it is that the real obstacle for prison reform in Brubaker is corrupt politicians.
In this way Brubaker is much, much more realistic than most prison movies, and consequently much more disheartening.
This is, however, a very well made movie, and Robert Redford and his supporting cast is great – especially David Keith.
