Jail bait
Content:
A year after "Glen or Glenda", Wood made "Jail Bait" (1954). This minor noir has many of the Wood trademarks - rigid actors who seem more like mannequins than people ("bits of business" seems to be a foreign concept to the director); a pumped-up but misleading ad campaign ("Danger! These girls are hot!"); a bizarre score in the form of relentless Spanish classical guitar music; stock Wood players like Dolores Fuller, Timothy Farrell, Mona McKinnon, and Lyle Talbot; and of course hokey dialogue ("Love … I don’t think you know what love means.") This is also surely one of the few films to devote a closing credit to a lingerie company ("Chic & Pandora"). [imagesjournal.com]
