WITNESS IN THE CITY is a French crime thriller, from 1959, in which a man's perfect plan for revenge on his dead wife's lover backfires, and he finds he must kill again.
violence
Moderate violence features shootings and beatings. A woman struggles with a man before being pushed off a moving train; there is no sight of her fatal fall. A man is strangled to unconsciousness and then hanged in undetailed fashion to make his death look like a suicide.
threat and horror
There is moderate threat with guns and in high-speed car chases through city streets in which vehicles crash. In a tense scene, a man standing at the edge of a subway platform is eyed by another person who seems intent on pushing him in front of a train pulling into the station, but doesn't act on the impulse.
sex
Prostitutes line a street and call out to potential clients; an older woman tells a younger one to "flaunt it" to improve her business. People come out of a strip club, but there is no sight of what is going on inside.
injury detail
There is sight of blood on faces, bodies and clothing in the aftermath of violent events and car crashes, but the black-and-white photography reduces its visual impact.
additional issues
There are references to suicide. There is mild bad language ('arsehole'), as well as very mild terms such as 'damn', 'screw', 'God' and 'Jesus'. There is frequent smoking, which reflects the historical period in which the film is set.
