In ''The Guardian'', Sam Wollaston said the documentary was "absolutely fascinating, one of Theroux's finest films". He described Theroux as "remarkably relaxed and at home", with access that was "extraordinary, and could never have happened in this country". Andrew Billen for ''The Times'' said, after watching the film for the first time: "I thought that Theroux was slightly overawed by his subject and less nosey than he should have been. Watching it again, I realised the prison's inmates were so strangely overarticulate that they did not need interrogating." ''The Daily Telegraph'' For ''The Independent'' The film was nominated for the best sound (factual) award for the 2008 British Academy Television Craft Awards.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bafta.org/awards/television-craft/nominations/?year=2008 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Louis Theroux: Behind Bars」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
