Carol Jeffries (known as 'Jeff') is a naive American woman staying in the Phillipines. She is given ten years in prison after being set up by her drug-dealer boyfriend, Rudy. She endures 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 be sent out after them. ”
“ Legend has it that Sam Arkoff, head of American International Pictures saw a statuesque Grier at his company switchboard and cast her on the spot for her breakthrough hit Coffy. That, as they say, is bull shee-it. The former beauty queen made her film debut in 1970 as an extra in Russ Meyer's big breast bonanza Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls, and appeared in a number of B-pics shot in the Philippines the following year for AiP's rival company, Roger Corman's New World Pictures. Alongside her role as the tough-as-nails prostitute in Big Doll House were supports in the horror flick The Twilight People and as a topless hooker (again!) in Cool Breeze, then back behind bars for Women In Cages.
In Women In Cages, Grier plays the sadistic warden for once, a pot-smoking lesbian with a fully-equipped torture chamber (including a guillotine!). The 'New Fish' (a recent inmate, for you prison film novices), a ditzy blonde ex-stripper called Alabama, has taken the heroin possession rap for her pimp boyfriend. She knows too much, so the pimp blackmails 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 embittered ex-addict and prostitute Grier in the position of slave owner, watching her white charges toiling away in the plantation with obvious ironic glee.
政治迫害的题材很容易牵动情绪，但也很容易拍不好。这部片子就是处处都想说，但又处处都没有到位的感觉……
去除掉同性的部分，就是一个情节普通的犯罪电影。愣头青小警察一意孤行深入案件，发现强权政治下的秘密。但正是因为同志情节及其上映的时间，让它有了特殊政治意义。
“我会找到你的”伴随着警鸣声戛然而止给人留白以想象，也许也只有在想象中他们才能在一起。
人不能恐惧一切，尤其是为了自由。骗了所有人，但是至少没有欺骗自己。
真相要个体以生命为代价才能获得。不仅如此，还得牺牲所有自己爱的那些人，连累他们，让他们也一起完蛋。真相的代价，太大了。不是谁都能付得起的。要追求真相，就得当个光杆司令。要不然，只能杀掉自己的良心。
陌生人不值得信任。
真实历史太残酷。这个片子只是切入了一点已经非常揪心了。
很喜欢这种背景置于八十年代东欧的同性罪案片，昏黄复古的光线，暧昧不清的情绪，混合着高压政治影射，最终还是那个“个人英雄主义对抗权力机构”的悲剧故事
整个片子基调美丽又绝望，独身一人探查真相，欺骗了所有人，唯独没有欺骗自己。
三颗星统统给演员的颜值。
故事线清晰简洁 最后竟是一个催生的影片，泪目
男主和小帅哥还挺好嗑的，但是未婚妻太惨了吧。
主角都要结婚了，还是和男人搞在了一起。。。那个年代好黑暗，但主角出轨的行为真的不咋滴，未婚妻就是个拿档案的工具人罢了，好惨。
“警”与“匪”，“直”与“弯”，两个对立的世界相互吸引的故事总是能引人入胜。
近期看过的最好的一部同影。两个人在审讯室的那段戏，好绝。CP感爆棚。
各方面来说都是一部规规矩矩的电影，相比剧情和人物塑造，镜头语言算是比较突出的
一件事情在不同的时代被定义为不同的类别，就会在某个社会层面上升起轩然大波。非法时代，牵连的都是生命，精神疾病的年代，把图灵这样的天才逼疯，不道德的年代，催生了更多的沦丧，堪比人吃人。而在定义为正常的今天，过去种种，都显得那么荒诞和野蛮。除了让恶得到宣泄，下定义还做了什么？nothing
想起了《雷德尔上校》，在严密监控的体制内跨越雷池半步，各种fetish。
成出戏只有床戏可睇，而且，好似体位唔多啱喎。
男二眼睛很好看，电影的BGM挺适配的。一开始还以为主角是铁直男，后面看来可能是个双吧，不过出轨挺不好的，女生实惨。
