Closeup on Violence
2 July 2021
Mike Kovac takes pictures of a fire in a rough part of the city. When he takes a picture of bystander Norma Delgado (Angie Dickinson.) Some young punks steal Mike's camera.

Later they storm into Mike's apartment as they want to destroy any pictures he took of her. Norma is the daughter of a mobster Marty Delgado who has been released from prison.

Marty thinks that the punks are paying due respect to the old timer. They are really after his hidden loot.

Meanwhile Mike tracks Norma down by using a composite picture of her. Only to find himself in further danger from the hoodlums.

Marty might need to use his hidden cash to buy himself out of trouble.

The acting from the young punks was comical. Almost as comical as the muscular Mike Kovak being beaten up by them.

There was a good story there about an old time gangster who thinks he is still relevant while hiding out.

A young Angie Dickinson is unrecognisable but still alluring.
