An unflinching look at the ongoing debate on violence in movies and its effect on the audience. In the contemporary fascination with images of crime, violence gets under our skin and keeps us enthralled. Violence in movies has been a source of controversy since cinema was in its infancy. From the black and white gunplay of the gangster movies of the '30s, to the slow-motion shootouts of Arthur Penn's landmark 1967 film, "Bonnie and Clyde," to the rivers of blood flowing in Quentin Tarantino movies, the depiction of violence in film has long polarized critics and audiences. And that debate continues today. Clint Eastwood, John Milus and Andrew Robinson are the ones connected to DIRTY HARRY who speak here but we get other interviews from filmmakers and authors who have written about violence in movies.
