Review of Midnight Express (1978) by Eli Kooris for Austin Chronicle — 24 Oct 2006
Director Alan Parker milks naturalistic performances out of his small cast and creates a brutal intensity rarely matched in cinema today. Michael Serensin's cinematography is oddly sedating yet intense, giving the prison and the whole country of Turkey a frightful, alien sort of feel.
