I, the Jury (1953)
1/10
Hate and the end of all human decency
7 June 2020
I watched this film on YouTube as it is in the public domain. In the UK it was given an X certificate while ' The Wild One ' was banned. The latter was a warning against a group of bikers invading a small town. It does not condone violence and shows how mobs can get out of hand. It was a serious insight into cowardice towards mob control, while this disgusting film takes the attitude that one man can be the jury and the executioner. Not only that but a victim of said jury does a semi-striptease to save her life. The book and its author had a vile attitude towards women, and the camera revels in it. I have read the reviews and am appalled at certain attitudes expressed. This film degrades those who see it and get pleasure out of it. I give it a one because I cannot give it a zero. I am sorry for the women actors involved in this hateful project.
