The Alcoholic Criminal (1958)
About this film
Alcohol is a true and measurable cause of crime. Film and dramatic episodes show how alcoholic breaks down inhibitions; how it may give a false sense of courage, and impair judgment. In some cases the crime is a result of the alcoholics need for liquor. And finally, traffic accidents, which fit our definition of crime, may frequently be attributed to alcohol.
