What problems do you think the film had in depicting corrections or corrections issues?

Instructions: For this assignment, you must first choose one movie from the following list:
1. Murder in the First
2. The Shawshank Redemption
3. The Green Mile
4. Dead Man Walking
5. American History X
Note: You can find these movies at various outlets, including the UofL library, online, or video rental.
After watching the film, you will write an analytical review of the film, based on what you learned in this course. You will connect issues in the movie with the issues we talked about in prisons and jails in the United States; and critique these issues as they are presented in the film. For example:
Were the problems and issues presented in the film an accurate portrayal of institutional corrections? Why or why not?
Which issues did you see in the film (inmate subculture, officer management, prison industry, etc.)?
A critical analysis should NOT be a summary; rather you are critiquing the material based on
your knowledge of institutional corrections and issues surrounding mass incarceration.
The paper should be approximately five (5) double-spaced pages, using appropriate font, and 1- inch margins.
Can pick from any of the movies listed above.
