Editorial Reviews

Review

“Prison Break has the dark social hierarchies of Oz and the clever inventions of Escape From Alcatraz.”

—Entertainment Weekly


“You'll never know the endless hours of blood, sweat, and, yes, sometimes tears, that went into making this show week after week. Then again, it's not important that you know. What's important is that you were entertained. Enjoy.”

—Wentworth Miller, Michael Scofield of Prison Break

Product Description

Desperate measures and impossible odds are the name of the game in Prison Break, Fox’s Golden Globe-nominated prime-time drama about brothers Lincoln Burrows and Michael Scofield’s escape from the notorious Fox River State Penitentiary. Two of the show’s veteran writers—Christian Trokey and Kalinda Vazquez—take readers behind the scenes of its production and provide an arresting glimpse at life “on the inside.” This companion book to the popular series also features hand-selected photographs from Director of Photography Fernando Arguelles’s personal collection, revealing how he upped the emotional stakes and intensity of Prison Break’s most explosive moments through dramatic lighting and composition. Filled with insight from the creative team and arresting photography, Prison Break: Behind the Scenes is an inescapable adventure in entertainment that is sure to keep its audience captive.

I waited a long time to get this book. Preordered in the spring time to be delivered in September, two delays later it arrived. Glad I waited and it was so worth it!! It was marked as hard cover and it was not. It had pleanty,abundance of beautiful pictures threw out the book, easy to read. They had pleanty of explanations for all the seasons and why they did what they did. I had to giggle when they were talking about bringing back
sara, would she come back and and she came right back.....please as any fan knows they had issues as
sara had a baby and they were not exactly being family friendly, or giving her time with her baby, and the only reason they made nice was beacause of the fans anger. And the other thing was they went back and forth as to wether to kill of Michel, as "it would be a slap to the loyal viewers." I did not buy that for one minute. The fans wanted him alive and they did what they did. But the book was a must have for any fan. I have added it to my PB collection. Read it from cover to cover in one day.
