Murder in the First (1995) depicts the cruelty that Henri Young faced at the hands of the assistant warden at Alcatraz Federal Prison. The 17-year-old orphan was caught stealing $5.00 he needed to feed himself and his younger sister. The store doubled as a U.S. Post Office, which meant he faced federal charges for robbing a post office. The movie stars Kevin Bacon as Henri Young, Christian Slater as his attorney, James Stamphill, and Gary Oldman as Milton Glenn, the assistant warden.
The movie is based on the real criminal, but the plot is mostly fiction. Amongst other things, the real Young was not convicted of stealing $5.00 from a post office.
