Examines the lost films and directors of the 1950s. Contrasting traditional themes of love, marriage, and family, the author's 1950s film world unveils once-taboo issues of rape, prostitution, and gangs. Television shows such as ""Captain Midnight"" and ""Ramar of the Jungle"" are juxtaposed with the cheerful world of ""I Love Lucy"" and ""Howdy Doody"".
