A difficult film with some nasty moments but then is hardly surprising with a title like The Brute. Gerry O'Hara worked in the business most of his life and between the 50s and 60s worked up to assistant director with such as, Otto Preminger, Carol Reed, Tony Richardson and Laurence Oliver. In1963 he was director for the first That Kind of Girl (1963) and was a sexual titillation while moralising about the dangers of STDs and later The Pleasure Girls (1965) written by O'Hara and directed with a swinging 60s scene. He made more films and then came up with his new one of The Brute and written and directed but never had much of an audience. It is a strange and is surely exploitation with the film at the opening with the most terrible of her husband burst into the middle of the night and drunk beats her savagely. There is another scene later on and she tries help. The film then becomes more of how it is the bad about men.
