Street Corner is a 1953 British drama film. It was written by Muriel and Sydney Box and directed by Muriel. It was marketed as Both Sides of the Law in the United States. While not quite a documentary, the film depicts the daily routine of women in the police force from three different angles. The three plotlines focus respectively on an 18-year old girl who is caught shoplifting, an army deserter who becomes involved in bigamy, and a baby who is abused by stepparents.
It was conceived as a female version of the 1950 film The Blue Lamp.[1]
