Anyone from the Aline MacMahon era will recognize the stereotypes among the cast. The young leading woman is a decent type driven to violence by fate; the innocent rural type should still be milking the goats; the decent woman guard - they call the guards "screws," just like in Hollywood - compensates for the vicious, sadistic screw.

"Mum" is the old lady who is wise and tends to her flower beds, and the other old one is a drunk and a thief and an escape artist.
