Birdman of Alcatraz
Convict Robert Stroud faces life imprisonment in solitary confinement after murdering a prison guard. Driven almost mad by despair and loneliness, Stroud's life gains meaning when he nurses it back and happens upon a baby sparrow in the practice yard. Despite using just a third grade education, Stroud proceeds to develop into renowned ornithologist and achieves a greater feeling of purpose and freedom behind bars than many people find in the world.
