Synopsis
"Kerwin Matthews (5 Against the House) and J Lee Cobb (The Family Secret) star in a fiIm noir exposé of murder and corruption in the fashion world.
When a Korean war veteran takes a job at his father’s fashion business, he finds they are paying the mob to shut out the union. When pro-union employees begin getting murdered, he decides to take on the gangsters.
Based on true stories about mob invoIvement in the garment industry, The Garment JungIe stands as a pro-union response to On the Waterfront, and is no less tough and controversiaI than that fiIm – original director Robert AIdrich (Kiss Me Deadly) was fired for his refusaI to compromise, with Vincent Sherman (Affair in Trinidad) stepping in to complete production."
