Curiosidades

Prison Break is a 1938 American crime-drama film directed by Arthur Lubin and starring Barton MacLane, Glenda Farrell and Paul Hurst. The film was based on the story "Walls of San Quentin" by Norton S. Parker. It was released by Universal Pictures on July 12, 1938.

Production

Glenda Farrell and Barton MacLane became popular co-starring in the Warner Bros.' Torchy Blane film series. The movie, Prison Break, were supposed to be the first film in a four-picture deal and dual contract with Farrell and MacLane. However, they made no other films at the Universal Pictures again with each other. Arthur Lubin became attached to direct on 12 April with Trem Carr with whom he had made several movies to produce.

The movie's working titles were "State Prison", "Prison Walls" and "Walls of San Quentin".

Filming started 16 May 1938 under the title Walls of San Quentin. Later in May the title was changed to State Prison as it was felt "San Quentin" had already been used in a title for a film with MacLane. The title would be changed again.
