"Never Too Late"

The movie "Never Too Late" was part of a Horror movie collection but it is not a horror movie.  A squire plots to have a young woman for his own.  He frames her fiance for a crime while he is out of town.  The squire intercepts his letters and she thinks that he has rejected her.  The innocent man is sent to prison and endures terrible punishment.  The squire happens to regard the people at the prison as his children but he mistreats them horribly.  The "Never Too Late" is some kind of a punishment machine.  A clergyman visiting the prison becomes aware of the horrible conditions and reports them to the governor and reform eventually comes.  The trailer at the beginning of the movie suggests that it was based on historical fact.  It's not a bad movie but is pretty dated.  Stragnely enough, it's one of those movies that could be remade and could make a rather nice movie.  It's worth seeing, mostly for historical purposes.
