Dear H-FILM and SCREEN-L:

A friend of mine is working on a project on prison rape and was looking
for suggestions of film and tv depictions of male/male prison rape, either
explicit or implied.  He's interested in both dramatic and comedic
representations (ie, the typical scenes of a man being locked up with
another prisoner who coyly suggests they get to know each other better...)

Any suggestions would be welcomed.  email me at basil@panix.com

"Scarcrow" with Al Pacino and Gene Hackman might be one that you're
looking for, though the 'rape' is consumated in a warehourse is memory
serves, and not in a prison cell.

_The Shawshank Redemption_ and Todd Haynes's _Poison_.  I have not seen
the latter and don't know the details.

Try the australian film _Ghosts...of the Civil Dead_

also, the _birdman of alcatraz_ (i think - the clint eastwood one) has a
brief moment in the showers, as does the eastwood film _Heartbreak Ridge_
although these are not strictly rape scenes, more suggestions of prison sex.
