Doin' Time

The film follows Duke Jarrett, who finds himself incarcerated at the John Dillinger prison, a facility that resembles a zoo more than a typical penitentiary. The story explores themes of prison life through a comedic lens, featuring a cast that includes Jeff Altman, Dey Young, and Muhammad Ali, among others.

As a comedy from the mid-1980s, Doin' Time employs humor that reflects the era's sensibilities, making it a unique addition to any collection focused on this genre. The film's parody of ethnic stereotypes and wrongful imprisonment adds a layer of social commentary, albeit in a lighthearted manner.

Collectors can find Doin' Time available on DVD and VHS, offering options for those who appreciate physical media formats. Its distinct premise and character-driven antics may resonate with fans of prison comedies or those interested in the era's cinematic style.
