Plot: Charles Bronson was a youngster who fell in with some bad lads in 1974 after making some pals on the street. His goal was to become well-known as soon as possible, so he manufactured a pistol at home and committed a post office robbery at that restless, feverish age. Even though he only won £26 in prize money, it cost him seven years in jail. The youngster was repeatedly convicted after that and kept committing crimes while inside. He was kept in isolation for thirty of his 34 years in jail.
