PRISONER OF LOVE ANDY GRIFFITH MOVIE

It is revealed in this episode that Barney likes his hamburgers cooked medium-rare.

The grocery list Big Maude Tyler gives Floyd when he and Sally go into town consists of 1 pound of sugar, 2 pounds of coffee, 4 dozen eggs, 4 loaves of bread, ketchup, fruit, and 4 pounds of hamburger.

Floyd's car is a 1934 Pontiac 2 door sedan.

This is one of only three episodes where a female is shown smoking (Sally). The others are Prisoner of Love and The Farmer Takes A Wife.

Chances are the same interior sets were used.

The inside of Charlie O'Malley's cabin closely resembles The Darlings cabin.

Actress Reta Shaw who played Big Maude Tyler would later play Barney's singing teacher Eleanora Poultice in Season 4.

Barney talks Pig Latin to Andy on the telephone: "Onvicts-kay ere-hay!".

Due to his likeness to another man, Sally refers to Barney as "Al.” Floyd calls Barney by the name "Al" for the rest of the episode.

Jean Carson who plays Naomi is also seen as one of the "Fun Girls" in two other episodes.

The phrase "Acka Backa,” spoken by Big Maude, refers to a children's nursery rhyme: "Acka backa soda cracker, acka backa boo! Acka backa soda cracker, out goes you!".

He stayed until the end of season 7 (Goober's Contest), and this episode serves as his last main character role. He would return in season four but his character would be very different, nearly immobile from the damage caused by the stroke.

This is the last appearance of Howard McNear (Floyd the Barber) before the actor suffered a stroke and left the show.

So all of this is what "Convicts at Large" satirized, but this time the cons are women, which was considered to be funnier.

The '55 movie did not include the sex and violence like the play did. The play won Tony awards and did quite well which is why a movie version was also done. The book was a best-seller which is why a Broadway play was made titled the same and also based on incidents similar to the Hill Family, but in the play version, the family experienced fictional sexual and violent acts at the hands of the convicts. The cons were caught after leaving the home. The book, written by Joseph Hayes, was directly influenced by the Hill family's ordeal in which they were treated well by the convicts but held for 19 hours. The book, play, and first movie were about a nationally well known real-life 1952 prison escape of 3 male convicts and their invasion of a Pennsylvanian suburban home and kidnapping of the Hill family. This episode is a satire of the 1953 best selling book, 1954 Tony award-winning play starring Paul Newman, and 1955 movie starring Humphrey Bogart, "The Desperate Hours.” The film was also remade again in 1990.Andy and O'Malley engineer a clever scheme and capture all but the ringleader, Big Maude, whom Barney manages to tango out the door and into the handcuffs.
