Best Answer

The most notable federal prison used in films is possibly Alcatraz, which according to Wikipedia, "...Point Blank (1967). This was the first major motion picture to be filmed on location at Alcatraz Island after the closure of the Federal prison in 1963." You can read more about its history, below.

Active State Prisons Used as Film Sets

A lovely film titled The Jericho Mile (TV 1979) was notably filmed at Folsom State Prison - 300 Prison Road, Represa, California, USA, according to its IMDb listing.

As well, Walk the Line (2005) notes its filming locations from the same source as Tennessee State Penitentiary, Nashville, Tennessee, USA.
