This week’s movie is set on an airplane transport that transfers prisoners.

The plane in the movie is dubbed “The Jailbird.”

“Jailbird” is slang for prisoners. It is a compound word made from “jail,” a synonym for prison, and “bird,” an animal many associate with flight.

The movie is titled “Con Air.”
