Tough Girl Mamie takes on Mel Torme... (How tough do you have to be to take on the Velvet Fog?)

What a cream puff...

Tossing a guy into the water...

Mamie just arrived in Girl's Town...

(her breasts got there 5 minutes before)...

(and her butt got there 5 minutes later)...

Kicking Mel Torme's ass one more time...

He best stick with singing scat...

Gloria Talbot as Vida, the baddest-ass Girl of Girl's Town...

Calls an attacker "Lover Boy," and then trashes him...

Girl's Town is one of the first offerings of female-male equality in a fight... The prevalent attitude of the 50s was to treat Female Violence as an aberration, that the Violent Woman was usually an Amazon or not-attractive, more of a freak of nature, and if she did get a good shot in, it was due more to surprise than ability... Early-60s Femme-Vi usually came as a form of comedy, so it was not until the mid-60s, notably via Honor Blackman as Pussy Galore, was it generally accepted that a woman could fight a man equally, and martial arts was the equalizer... For 1959, tho,  Gloria Talbot's Vida was about as fearsome as a gal could get on screen, and MVD is surprisingly effective as well...
