Review of Birdman of Alcatraz (1962) by Jetta W — 01 Jun 2007
Sad, beautiful film with an Oscar-worthy performance from Burt Lancaster. The real Stroud was a psychopath, but this characterization is really a sympathetic one. If you analyze only the performance, it's brilliant, and one that only Lancaster could have done.
