Eric Bana throws more than a few body parts on the barbie -- figuratively speaking, at least -- in this shocking and humorous film about Australia's most notorious convict, Mark Read. Out to rule the cell block and make a name for himself, Read fused fact and fiction into the pulp of nine best-selling books. In the process, he became an iconoclastic antihero with a folkloric rep bigger than Billy the Kid's!
