The Sniper (1952)
7/10
The Sniper - Misnomer Title Belies Thriller
11 December 2021
This film is not really about any military situations or traditional sniper plots. It is about a sick man (Arthur Franz) who shoots women as a sexual release. This, of course, is unacceptable behavior, even if you might think one or two of these women deserved some type of punishment. The film points out the helplessness of American society to deal with sicknesses of this type at an early stage, which would prevent more serious crimes years later. The film itself is fairly entertaining, and there really is no protagonist in the film. In the 2020s, this type of behavior is now diagnosed almost immediately in our current PC environment, thus preventing more serious crimes later.
