Escape from Alcatraz is presented as part of the site's year-by-year record of theatrical releases. Its domestic total gives the page a concrete theatrical baseline without overstating the film's wider cultural position. The absence of an imported worldwide figure keeps the focus on the domestic theatrical data that powers the page.

The linked cast data centers on Clint Eastwood, giving the film a clear lead-actor connection. That combination of box office context and role data gives the page its place within Hollywood Rankings.
