Sometime last week it was The Big House (1930) directed by George W. Hill, with Chester Morris, Wallace Beery, Lewis Stone, and Robert Montgomery. There is a rave of mine about this film somewheres back on the thread. Visually gripping wide shots of thousands (?) of convicts marching in silence to and from everywhere, the screen-filling scene of the meal in a huge hall, the claustrophobic solitary confinement cells, and on and on.
