Diamonds of the Night (1964)

Making bread from scratch is hard. First you have to clear a field . . .

[6/10 · 28 December 2020]

. . . of a mountain of jagged rocks, as documented during DIAMONDS OF THE NIGHT. Next you have to plow the field, sow some seed, weed and irrigate your crop, harvest the wheat and separate it from the chaff--then grow, gather, manufacture or purchase other ingredients, which are blended into your bread dough that in turn must be kneaded, baked and sliced. As pictured in DIAMONDS, some backwards regions are infested with members of the Lunatic Killers gang, who won't be caught dead going through ANY of these steps to earn their bread. They club farm wives to death instead, and pillage their loaves to be fed. This sort of depraved sloth, larceny and murder results in geezer firing squads being taxed to set things straight. But with plenty of beer on hand for the after action party, good times can be enjoyed by all.
