Lock Up is a film detailing the last six months of the prison term of inmate Frank Leone (played by Sylvester Stallone). The movie largely involves the conflict between him and Warden Drumgoole (played by Donald Sutherland).
Frank Leone is nearing the end of his prison term for a relatively minor crime. Just before he is paroled, however, Warden Drumgoole takes charge. Drumgoole was assigned to a hell-hole prison after his administration was publicly humiliated by Leone, and has now arrived on the scene to ensure that Leone never sees the light of day.
