Town without Pity 08/09/25

MGM’s in-house Blu-ray label is back with another worthy remaster: a Mirisch- supervised West German production that leads with a Gene Pitney smash hit single and gives Kirk Douglas another tough-guy attorney to play. A brutal gang rape in Germany puts four U.S. soldiers on trial; to save their lives, Kirk must demolish victim Christine Kaufman on the witness stand, with tragic results. E.G. Marshall and Barbara Rütting co-star; the slimeball defendants include Richard Jaeckel, Robert Blake, and Frank Sutton. Collectors take note: the Blu-ray disc is a correct widescreen, not 4×3 as noted by MGM and the websellers. On Blu-ray from MGM.
