This is life inside Miami's mega-jail, writes Louis Theroux.For a bespectacled, peace-loving Englishman, there can be few places less congenial than a berth on the sixth floor of Miami main jail.The place has to be seen to be believed. Up to 24 inmates are crowded into a single cell, living behind metal bars on steel bunks, sharing a single shower and two toilets.Little of the bright Miami sun filters through the grilles on the windows. Visits to the yard happen twice a week for an hour. The rest of the time, inmates are holed up round the clock, eating, sleeping, and going slightly crazy.But what is most shocking is the behaviour of the inmates themselves. For reasons that remain to some extent opaque - perhaps because of the bleak conditions they live in or because of insufficient supervision by officers, maybe because they lack other outlets for their energies, or because of their involvement with gangs on the outside, or maybe from a warped jailhouse tradition - the incarcerated here have created a brutal gladiatorial code of fighting.Louis Theroux enters a higher security upper floor of Miami's mega-jailThey fight for respect, for food and snacks, or simply to pass the time.With around 7,000 inmates, the Miami jail system is one of the biggest in America - a so-called "mega-jail". Most of these inmates are on remand - awaiting bail or being held until their trial dates - usually for fairly minor offences. In America, jails are distinct from prisons in that they hold people who are pre-trial and therefore unconvicted.Most of these inmates reside at one of the two biggest facilities in the Miami jail system, large modern buildings where the cells are well-supervised and safe.But the hardened few hundred who are either charged with particularly serious offences or have a track record of misbehaving behind bars get sent to the fifth and sixth floors of the main jail - a place with its own myth and lore.Continue reading the main storyFind out moreThe two-part documentary, Louis Theroux: Miami Mega-Jail, is broadcast on BBC Two on Sunday 22 and 29 May at 2100 BSTOr catch up via iPlayerInmates throughout the jail speak with a sense of awe about the main jail, for it is here that the code of the jail is most stringently observed.The idea of me spending time in the Miami jail grew out of a documentary I'd made about San Quentin in California in 2007. I'd been struck by the strange self-contained world of the prison - with its own rules and its own unexpected intimacies.I'd come to Miami having heard that jails - with their more transient and therefore more chaotic population of new arrestees and defendants - were quite different, less settled and less domesticated. Inmates tended not to stay long enough to get comfortable or bond with officers or with each other.Also, while prisons separate out their inmates so that the most serious cases are sent to "supermax" ultra-high security facilities, jails house the entire gamut of accused offenders.Still, I was shocked by what I found.Fighting is difficult to stop in the cellsA few days into my stay I arrived at the jail to find there had been a fight on the sixth floor - a man had been badly beaten by several of his cellmates. I visited the cell and was told by several inmates that the victim had been testifying on other people's cases. "Snitches get stitches," one said.I tracked down the victim, who'd just arrived back from the clinic, his eyes swollen shut, looking as though he'd just gone 10 rounds with Vitali Klitschko. He said his cellmates had taken it in turns to fight him, one after another, six or seven in a row - a practice called "line-up".Gingerly, I raised the possibility that he might have aroused the ire of his compadres by co-operating with the state on his case, maybe against his co-defendants? He said the idea was absurd - he'd been arrested for driving with a suspended licence.A day or two later I met an inmate called Robert Tosta, a sturdy guy with an extensive track record of muggings and burglaries.

I was confused. They were shouting? Making faces?No, they were "gunning" - that is to say masturbating - "at" and "to" our female director and assistant producer.I recalled that some of the men behind bars had been swaddled in sheets as they stood or had lain covered on their beds - I'd assumed this was because they were camera shy - but in fact, it was explained, this was the better to hide.Undoubtedly the practice was strange and uncomfortable for all the members of our team.

7.如何评价《Louis Theroux: Miami Mega jail》这部其他剧？

豆瓣电影丨Ms.Kay评论：《Louis Theroux: Miami Mega jail》居然是35mm胶片拍摄，喜欢。个人感觉比数码高清电视画面质感还要好。

新浪娱乐点评丨网友评价：我一直认为所谓的影片是绘声绘色的书比小说更高基于虚拟与幻想回头一想却都是现实的虚幻影子。

大众点评丨春夏秋冬评论：一直是热爱看其他剧写影评的人，却在大学以后久久不再提笔。可能是因为工作的忙碌，家庭的牵绊，还有世俗了的心。但是这都不影响我和我的另一半每周都会选择一部好片欣赏的好习惯。

丢豆网丨网友评论：导演的作品，有欢笑、有泪水、有喜悦、有悲伤...，虚拟世界中的感情是多彩的，并不同于我们现实中不爽就一直玩的感觉，虚拟感情的交错，当看完之后会觉得更加舒畅。

mtime时光网丨一梦春秋评论：《Louis Theroux: Miami Mega jail》不同于其他作品，没有紧迫感、虚浮的情节及杂乱的画面，却在不断教导我们，不像老师家长苦口婆心语重心长的教诲(为遵重在这里我省略掉啰嗦这词)。我们看电影电视剧亦或综艺动漫逗号，往往是融入进去，在不知不觉中去了解这些似乎不容易被我们所发现、所理解的道理。再说近一点，看视频时设身处地会发现这是现实中更近教导的教导！

猫眼电影丨网友评论：今天又把Louis Theroux: Miami Mega jail这个其他剧看了一遍，感慨良多。
