Correction!  The British film about the reform school for boys is
titled SCUM, not CORRUPT.  CORRUPT is the name of the Harvey Keitel/
John Lydon movie about an S&M relationship between a cop & cop-killer.

By the way, I saw George Cukor's THE WOMEN last night: featuring 
nearly everyone it seemed in MGM's "stable" of actresses from Joan
Crawford to Marjory ("Ma Kettle") Main, it was an Encyclopedia of
Dish, very fast & funny (the sexist convictions in the story were
obnoxious but ridiculous: the audience booed &/or groaned appro-
priately, but it was offset somewhat by robust ridicule of male
foibles).  Villain Joan Crawford's parting line at the end was
"There's a word for girls like you, but it isn't used in polite
society outside of kennels!"

WOMEN played with MADCHEN IN UNIFORM which was delightful, even
though the theater showed the "censored" version; the audio was
often difficult to follow.  But considering the movie had to be
smuggled out of Nazi Germany, it's amazing it still exists.
