The Female Jungle Movie Review 1956

Below-average whocares whodunnit directed by Roger Corman stock-company actor Ve Sota. Police sergeant Tierney is caught between a rock and a hard place. The prime suspect in a murder case, Tierney discovers a series of clues that implicate his friend Carradine. Interesting only for the screen debut of the nympho-typecast Miss Jayne--of whom Bette Davis said "Dramatic art in her opinion is knowing how to fill a sweater."
