Lucky Break (2001)
Wat is er toch aan de hand in de Long Rudfort gevangenis? De zware jongens van de B-vleugel hullen zich in uitzinnige kostuums, tooien zich met maffe pruiken en voeren zich op als ware acteurs. Het antwoord is eenvoudig want ze bereiden zich voor op de amateur-voorstelling Nelson the Musical. Slechts weinigen weten dat de toneeluitvoering één groot rookgordijn is voor de spectaculaire ontsnappingsoperatie van Jimmy en Rudy. Waar Jimmy geen rekening mee heeft gehouden is dat hij verliefd wordt op Annabel Sweep, de mooie sociaal werkster van de gevangenis. Daarbij ruikt ook het hoofd van de beveiliging onraad. Zal de ontsnapping ondanks deze tegenslagen nog wel lukken? Jimmy staat ondertussen voor een moeilijke keuze: de liefde of vrijheid.
