Jean Moorhead, Joanne Cangi, Theresa Hancock, and Lee Constant look like they’re ready for trouble—or planning to break into a dance number—in this photo made for the 1956 drama The Violent Years. The violent years, if we go by the age of the actresses, apparently occur in one’s twenties. And how violent do they get? They rob a gas station, shoot a cop dead, take some hostages, crash a car through a plate glass window, and sexually assault a guy. So… pretty violent. We may circle back to the film later.
Juvenile delinquency—it isn't just for juveniles.
