Information

------------------------------



Often times the best fiction is based on fact. In The Real Story the startling facts behind the fiction in Hollywoods greatest hits are investigated.

Before Hollywood made them famous, history made them legends. Classic mystery and adventure tales of the 20th century comes alive in "The Real Story," a five-part series on Smithsonian Channel. The series examines the true stories behind famous historical real-life events and individuals that inspired some of Hollywood's most famous blockbusters.

They've thrilled us, horrified us, and devastated us. They've raised questions about our past and given us hope for a brighter future. They are five of Hollywood's biggest hits, all works of fiction, but all inspired by real events more dramatic than anything a screenwriter could dream up.

Join us as we uncover the actual stories and characters as we go behind the scenes of classic films including "the real story" behind Eliot Ness and his band of FBI "The Untouchables", the haunted house in Amityville, Long Island "The Amityville Horror", the infamous three-man escape from Alcatraz in 1962 "Escape From Alcatraz", Ian Fleming and his creation James Bond and the real-life history of Indiana Jones.

1)  Escape From Alcatraz

In June 1962, three inmates successfully broke out of Alcatraz prison, never to be seen again. Alcatraz was the world's most impregnable prison, yet three prisoners believed they could achieve the impossible and escape. Their plot succeeded, and was discovered during the prison's routine "morning count." Despite the authorities' strenuous efforts to track down the escapees, none were ever found. Did the prisoners actually make it off the island, or did the icy waters of the San Francisco Bay act as the fortress' last line of inescapable defence?

The Real Story: Escape from Alcatraz speaks with key individuals, including Darwin Coon, an inmate who was in Alcatraz at the time of the escape, the wardens who discovered the missing prisoners, and the FBI agents who tried to track them down.
