Guest: Billy Hayes
Billy Hayes was a college English major searching for adventure to write about, like his hero Jack London, when in 1970 he had a rude awakening--he was arrested at the Istanbul airport trying to board a plane while carrying four pounds of hashish. After receiving a life sentence, relentless efforts by his family to gain his release, enduring five brutal years and making numerous escape plans, Billy took matters into his own hands and pulled off a daring escape to freedom. Soon after, he wrote his first book, Midnight Express, a worldwide best seller that became an Academy Award-winning film.
Midnight Express Epilogue: Train Keeps Rolling shares Billy Hayes's continued journey of self-discovery as an actor and director, a husband, and a son of aging parents. He fulfills a longtime dream of rapprochement with the Turkish people when he accepts an invitation to speak in Istanbul, also revisiting his former prison and the now abandoned madhouse he had tried to escape from in 1972.
