Gabe B Nov 3 A grimy, low-budget little noir full of duplicitous and unlikable characters. Pulpy entertainment. See more Aldo G Mar 7 A low-budget mess of a noir. But, I liked it similar to the dime store pulp novels my mom would buy and I'd read through for cheap thrills See more deke p 06/13/2022 1955! Noir crime drama. LAWRENCE TIERNEY! JAYNE MANSFIELD!

See more 12/18/2011 So, now it's time for a review of a Jayne Mansfield-movie! Though, I should add that she only has a small role, but it's actually her debut. I honestly had no expectations at all, before watching this. It's been on my "wanted"-list for a good while, and the main reason why I wanted to see it, was because it's Jayne Mansfield's debut role in a motion picture. But I have to say that it was actually better than I had hoped for. I find these unpretentious low-budget Noir's a bit charming. They usually have a very plain and straight story to work on, and few but strong and colorful characters. I can appreciate those components at times. Look at Detour, for example! Female Jungle may not be as sharp as Detour, but it belongs to the same category of B-noirs. The movie is about the chasing of a killer of a beautiful blonde movie actress. There are several possible culprits in the picture; an off-duty cop (Lawrence Tierney), a caricaturist (John Carradine), a janitor (James Kodl), a columnist (Burt Kaiser) and his wife (Kathleen Crowley) and his lover (Jayne Mansfield).... This movie is not too impressing but contains a few thrills, but most importantly is a chronicle among film noirs, and definitely watch-worthy if you're into those!
