Guilty Parents Reviews

A film that attempted to address the issue of sexual ignorance of teenagers in the 1930s but was a misguided effort to pull in moviegoers looking for exploitation. The trite story deals with a young girl whose virtue is threatened by a shallow man. She kills him, is dragged into court, and is charged with the crime. Her defense counsel blames her narrow-minded mother for her daughter's misdeeds. An unfortunate ending has the girl jumping out of a window to her death before the jury announces a verdict of not guilty.
