Watched at the New Beverly as a double bill with THE HOLY ROLLERS
Much less the women in prison movie than I thought it would be. Strong performances and a tale of how women are treated. The only man who shows any kindness and respect is Tommy Lee Jones’s criminal character. A great takedown of the culture at the time. Yvette Mimieux turns in an amazing performance.
Definitely not a movie for everyone as the rape scene is a powerful dark scene.
