한 때 매춘부였던 켈리는 시골의 작은 마을 그랜빌로 이사와 판매원으로 살면서 새로운 삶을 시작한다. 어느 날 마을의 경찰서장 ‘그리프’를 만나고 그와 함께 행복한 시간을 보낸다. 그러나 이 행복을 산산조각 낼 엄청난 사건이 터지고 마는데... 켈리는 인간과 세상의 본질을 목격하고 한없는 절망과 폭력의 회오리에 빠져든다. 이 영화의 오프닝 시퀀스는 인간의 폭력성을 묘사하는데 탁월했던 사무엘 풀러의 진가를 확인할 수 있는 절대 놓치지 말아야 할 명장면이다.
할리우드 B급 영화의 거장으로 알려진 사무엘 풀러의 대표작으로 광기에 사로잡힌 미국 사회를 특유의 박진감 넘치는 스타일로 그린 작품이다. 영화는 흑백으로 촬영했지만 후반부 주인공의 환상 장면은 컬러다. 정신병원에서 일어난 살인사건의 전말을 밝혀 퓰리쳐 상을 타기위해 야심을 불태우는 민완기자 자니 배릿은 살인사건의 전모를 취재하려고 정신병자로 가장해 병원에 잠입한다. 바렛은 정신병자들 속에서 차츰 자신이 미쳐가고 있다는 사실을 깨닫는 동시에 살인자를 밝혀내게 된다. 하지만 자신을 껴안는 애인을 알아보지 못할 정도로 완전히 미쳐 파멸한다. 풀러는 당대 사회상을 정신병동이라는 비정상적 공간으로 전유하여 고발하고자 했다.

Houri Girl
Encompassing three hugely popular double acts, The Crazy Gang were one of Britain's best-loved, most enduring variety troupes – their antics delighting audiences for over three decades from the early 1930s and their career taking in numerous Royal Command performances. Their efforts to save a struggling circus provide the laughs in this uproarious comedy, also starring Goldfinger icon Shirley Eaton and featuring Flanagan and Allen's rendition of their greatest hit, Underneath the Arches. The Crazy Gang have been jacks-of-all-trades with Joe Winter's Monster Circus for almost as long as Joe has been on the road, and they're still hoping for a big break. But Joe has hit hard times: his equipment is mortgaged, most of his acts have deserted him and even the elephants have walked out. So the Gang set about finding a way to save the circus... and come up with a typically novel solution!
