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.
美国价值书写的神话故事⛰️ 总体来说挺好玩
在英国看过他们的版本的，跟这个气质不同，但是同样有趣
天呐Jenn Colella的机长太帅了！
和这样一部片子不期而遇真的是太幸福了～强烈推荐！！！
太太太好看了
热血沸腾，哽咽多次，无论这个世界有多么糟糕，还有音乐，真是件幸运的事。表白女机长！
灾难来临前的鸡毛蒜皮是生活的全部，人们活得恍恍惚惚、显得单纯幼稚。一旦灾难过境，人的善良、乐观和坚韧又常常爆发出惊人的能量。纽芬兰的这个小镇恰是如此。
编排太牛，节奏太紧密，简直有点目不暇接了。
世界不是孤立的，人类的悲欢可以共鸣，穆斯林是要被搜身的…
不愧是百老汇啊，舞台上的每个人包括最后的乐手都是魅力四射，通过舞台，我们看到了在甘德这么一个平时被人遗忘的小镇，危难时刻涌现出人性的光辉，又通过中东人，飞行员，纽约市民，失去消防员的母亲等等个体完整的反应了整个事件，轻松而严肃，幽默又不失温情
疫情的时候在b站看过
看之前没想到这个剧传达的信息这么optimistic 卡司无缝衔接身份转换 in an ideal world 陌生人的善意 世界和平

这个视角说911的相关故事太棒了，持续性地感慨且感动。
舞台设计得很好 挺可爱的 唯一要说不太喜欢的就是我感觉歌一般
回家的火车上看的，继《汉密尔顿》之后的第二部音乐剧。音乐剧这种东西，将音乐和剧情结合在一起，真的很有表现力，入坑了。小镇居民的援助，是人性中最原始的善的表达。
又哭成狗… 1⃣️开头小镇人民协力帮助乘客的时候，一直到最后#something‘s gone，都疯狂代入疫情；2⃣️有一幕一对清洁能源公司的美国gay couple，和一个石油公司工作的英国老头一起散步，让我想起在加拉帕戈斯的船上，在当地导游痛批人类制造塑料如何祸害海洋生物之后，一个加拿大化工公司的高层为塑料做辩护；3⃣️还有一幕犹太教天主教伊斯兰教同时祈祷，三种语言的圣歌一起响起真是爆哭，顺便想起香格里拉山间那座神奇的供着关公，八仙，财神，圣母玛利亚，孔子的藏传佛教寺庙— —寿国寺
耐听性包括舞台观赏性差了点。女机长solo女性力量依旧最强。
