笼中女【影视解说】

　Carol Jeffries (known as *#39;Jeff*#39;) is a ***** American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after *eing set up *y her drug-dealer *oyfriend, Rudy. She end**es the harsh conditions, sadistic head matron and attempts on her life, then convinces her cell-mates to try to escape with her through the jungle, in spite of the knowledge that ruthless trackers will *e sent out after them. ”**r/>　　“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pict**es saw a statuesque Grier at his company switch*oard and cast her on the spot for her *reakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is *ull shee-it. The former *eauty queen made her film de*ut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer*#39;s **g *reast *onanza *eyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a num*er of *-pi** shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP*#39;s rival company, Roger Corman*#39;s New World Pict**es. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in *ig Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool *reeze, then *ack *ehind *ars for Women In Cages.**r/>　　In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-**oking le**ian with a fully-equipped tort**e cham*er (including a guillotine!). The *#39;New Fish*#39; (a recent inmate, for you prison film nov***s), a ditzy *londe ex-stripper called Ala*ama, has taken the ****** possession rap for her pimp *oyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp *lackmails her cellmates to execute her. A competent and well-shot entry in the tropical prison genre from Filipino director Gerry De Leon, it places the em**ttered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of sl**e owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with o*vious ironic glee.
