      Audience Member Pre-Girlicious Robin Antin as a dancer sent to prison for killing her abusive stepfather where she puts together a Broadway style musical show behind bars. Can't miss entertainment for fans of both Fame and women in prison films. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member The first women-in-prison musical. Maybe not artsy enough for the Flashdance crowd and maybe not exploitive enough for WIP fans. A nice try though, there's some real talent behind bars--A for effort. Prison bars, it seems, could not cage Antin's spirit.
