Granted it's not on Blu Ray like I like them, but DVD will do.. A true Classic and does make you wonder if they made it?? Interestingly enough, The Discovery Channel awhile back did some show where the FBI or Marshalls claimed to have received a tip that 2 of the prisoners from Alcatraz who escaped with Eastwood's character were alive and living in Brazil, but never heard another word on it

It's a pretty good movie.

Mythbusters did their thing looking into how they escaped, they even take us into the areas behind the walls and all that:
