Seeing a movie called The Violent Heart, you might expect a 50s melodrama to be your awaiting pleasure, the type of time machine throwback romance with a title as profound as Lana Turner was glamorous.

The Violent Heart – a teetering pile of coincidences masquerading as a story – barely passes muster as even the latter.
