It's worth mentioning here that Straight Time is based on the
book of the same name by former FBI most wanted man-turned
cult icon Edward Bunker, and the book in turn was based on
his real life exploits. Bunker is probably known to most
people as the short-lived, Souther Drawl-having Mr. Blue in
Quentin Tarantino's ultra-violent gangster masterpiece
"Reservoir Dogs."
