As stated this is a guidebook for discussion of the socially-conscious movie, "Fury", directed by Fritz Lang, and starring Spencer Tracy and Sylvia Sydney. The discussion surrounds Spencer Tracy, who is arrested mistakenly and charged with kidnapping; a ravenous crowd quickly gathers and demands Tracy be turned over to them; the police resist and long story short the crowd sets fire to the jail and finally bombs it as well. Tracy survive somehow and decides to take revenge on his attempted murderers by setting them up for his murder, and so on. Interesting to note that the dog actor in the film turns out to be the same Cairn Terrier who played Toto in "The Wizard of Oz.".
