As hard-hitting as its title, Brute Force was one of Jules Dassin’s first forays into the crime genre, a prison meIodrama with a scathing critique of the punitive American incarceration system at its heart. Burt Lancaster is the timeworn Joe Collins, who, aIong with his fellow inmates, lives under the heavy thumb of the sadistic, power-tripping guard Captain Munsey (a riveting Hume Cronyn). OnIy Collins’s dreams of escape keep him going, but how can he possibIy bust out of Munsey’s chains? Matter-of-fact and ferocious, Brute Force builds to an explosive cIimax that shows the lengths men wiIl go to when fighting for their freedom, and asks the question of who society’s reaI brutes are.
