Peter Falk and Fred Savage in The Princess Bride (1987)

Junichi Kajioka in Devils on the Doorstep (2000)

This list will last you a lifetime! My personal recommendation: Go through this entire list in release order to appreciate filmmaking to its fullest. Happy watching!

Orson Welles, Dorothy Comingore, and Ruth Warrick in Citizen Kane (1941)

Julianne Moore and Jeff Bridges in The Big Lebowski (1998)

A selection of my favourite films, either set in prisons, asylums, etc. or focusing upon those escaped or released from confinement, or upon those captured and awaiting imprisonment. 

The prison bars and walls loom large and cast long shadows!

Philip Seymour Hoffman, William H. Macy, Philip Baker Hall, Jason Robards, and Jeremy Blackman in Magnolia (1999)
