Remember this controversial movie, Alan Parker's Midnight Express. A motion picture regarding a time in the country of Turkey, as originally wrote by American tourist Billy Hayes.
The books author was surprised to see that the movie was much different than what he had described already in detail. Midnight Express was given a few changes by screenplay master Oliver Stone.
During the Academy Awards, Oscars were given to Giorgio Moroder for his score that happened to become a bestseller on the music charts, and Oliver Stone as well received an award for the screenplay adaption taken from the Hayes book.
John Hurt and Randy Quaid co-starred in the dark film, with the late actor Brad Davis in the starring role. Recently, Oliver Stone has made it known that he made a mistake with the way he portrayed the country.
