Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
Tonight we honor what was lost, But we also commemorate what we found❤️
十二位演员，十二把椅子，如此精彩！感谢官摄。
太tm精彩了 自己像个深井冰一样坐在家里的沙发上鼓掌
年度最佳！超五星超五星超五星！！！节奏！调度！百老汇演员的专业素养！！！看到返美那段音乐可太共情了！！！
叙事不错 把一个小舞台算用到极致了 几把凳子 一个转盘 完成一切场景。歌不错 是好听的流行歌 mamamia 那种。有意思的地方：同一组演员演两批不同人物 衣服换的超快
炉火永远热着水壶
挺感动的。在现有体量和形式下做得够好了…（音乐剧本身就很难把内容做得特别深）这个戏本身也像911事件中的甘德一样提供了近乎乌托邦式的美好、友善、温暖。对于戏剧应该如何改编真实事件，和当下产生互动还蛮有启发的。
Captain大爱😍😍😍，一对G从枫叶国吵回美帝最后分手，像极了人间小情侣🤣
故事的角度特别好 另一种角度表达社会事件后的社会变化 每个人都很善良 / 但我自己感觉略微有点主旋律 故事比较散 / 原来圆形转盘是百老汇标配啊！
应该是看过没mark，挺真诚和愉悦的体验，忘了是女机长还是女镇长很帅气的面庞
我能从这107分钟里得到暂时的宽慰 It's enough
所以是这个音乐剧即将被改编成电影吗？音乐剧我不太会欣赏啦，期待下电影
特别，特别，特别感动。愿所有善行都被铭记，并得到应有的回报。音乐本身不算出彩，绝大多数对白和歌曲节奏都偏快，虽然是为了营造紧张气氛，但如果有更多抒情旋律的适当调剂，整体感觉会更张驰有度。唯一印象深刻的歌是女机长的独唱，旋律优美，而且歌词特别励志。根据真人真事改编的故事线太有感染力了，数次泪目，如果改编成话剧或电影，可能也会出好作品。
听了无数遍album之后终于在Apple TV里看了。感动！
9·11二十周年&疫情时的官摄意义非凡。演员们魅力四射，编排和演唱数度让人感到激动与兴奋。“Be anxious for nothing拥抱不同，能够真诚地相信爱，付出爱。”当下的人类，无比需要这样的作品来激励并唤醒人性中的善良和爱。
临时决定在12月12日观看《鬼灭之刃 无限列车篇》TV版，而后才发现，去年的剧场版《无限列车篇》刚好就是在12月12日观影，真是太巧了！去年 12.12 还顺便重温《那田蜘蛛山篇》，今年则看下《浅草篇》和《鼓屋敷篇》。
因为疫情，取消、退票，太过遗憾，还好有官摄，看得又哭又笑的。原来20年了，还没有来得及去纽约看过纪念馆，那一天在班级里看着电视，直到长大后才真的明白那是怎样可怕的灾难。感谢陌生人的善意。
太棒了！
