The Great Getaway

The Great Getaway is a 2016 comedy gangster brickfilm by Joshua Chawner. It is set in New York in 1932, and follows the story of a captive man who makes an escape from a gang of alcohol bootleggers. It was in production for 6 months, on and off. The opening sequence was shot with a Super 8 film camera. The film was originally released with a soundtrack of copyrighted music, but was later re-released with royalty free music so as to not be claimed on YouTube, and the re-release version also had other editing tweaks.
