A Question of Silence
Three women of no previous acquaintance suddenly kill a male shopkeeper in the middle of the day. The female psychiatrist assigned to the case sets out to understand why. Three women, all strangers to each other, meet in a dress boutique. One of the three is approached by the male proprietor as she is shoplifting a garment. When he approaches her the other two join her in beating the man to death. Other female shoppers ignore the whole situation and leave when the crime is complete. The court appoints a female psychriatrist to examine the women; contrary to public opinion the psychiatrist finds they are not insane but implies the rage expressed by the crime is a result of the male dominated society. An interesting study of extreme behavior. The prisoner's cells were a revelation. —Rosemarie Friedman <ezra@postoffice.ptd.net>
