Thursday, March 30 - Girls on the Loose

Girls on the Loose (1958)

A gang robs a payroll and during the robbery, a guard is seriously injured. It's no surprise when the gang turns out to be all women, lead by glamorous nightclub owner Mara Corday. She involves her sister (Barbara Bostock) in the robbery by having her drive the getaway car while not telling her what they are all up to. Once the sister finds out, it is too late for her. 

The other gang members have different reactions to their committing of the crime. Riddled with guilt, the religious Abby Dalton appears to be on the verge of a nervous breakdown and a threat to keeping her mouth shut. Another one (Joyce Barker) takes pleasure in the fact that as the group gets smaller, her intake of the payroll money gets larger. Finally, French girl Lita Milan seems to be intent on spending her money getting drunk. 

Corday is not happy when her sister begins spending time with a police investigator (Peter Mark Richman) and does all she can to thwart the romance...
