Midnight Express : did he come back for max?

Re: did he come back for max?

In reality, Max was released a couple of years later because his term was up. Hayes had nothing to do with it, as far as I know.

In the film, it was strongly implied that Max wouldn't last much longer in the prison - he was nearly dead when we last saw him.

Re: did he come back for max?

John Hurt voiced "UNIVERSE" for ITV or Channel 4 in 1999.
I instantly recognised his voice, and was confirmed right at the credits...I couldnt think of a better person to capture your imagination in the way he does narrating this thought inspiring show.


Isn't it crazy how different conversations and arguments have sprung up in this thread.
On the subject that was being discussed a few posts up from this, about the status of Ireland and England and the UK ect:

The UK's full title is "The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"

So the clue is in the title.

-Jason does kill everyone except those left to suffer the next movie when he comes back
-Dawn of the Dead actually starts several hours after dawn
-2001 A Space Odyssey did not really happen in 2001, as a matter of fact it did not happen at all
-Napalm in the morning does in fact smell like victory!

Re: did he come back for max?

What I'm wondering is why Hamidou chased Max, then threw him into a wooden pallet, causing it to shatter. My best guess is that Max had just recovered from the severe beating after having been taken out of the prison and didn't want to be in section 13

Re: did he come back for max?

Yes he came back in 2010 yu should watch this video its inverview in US after he came back about real story of the movie /watch?v=wd-3Cslc00Y

Re: did he come back for max?

This story was on NG locked up abroad and Billy Hayes was in it telling his side of the story

Re: did he come back for max?

It's possible that this conversation never occurred due to the fact that the film was not 100% accurate
