Self Defense is a 1932 pre-Code American drama film directed by Phil Rosen and starring Pauline Frederick. It was produced and distributed by Monogram Pictures.
“The assailant who breaks the moral law cannot thereby acquire a better right to life than the innocent person who keeps the moral law, so that on being unjustly attacked a man finds that his right to life becomes a duty to die.”
“He knew from experience that “self-defense” could mean whatever a person or group wanted it to mean.”
“Self-defense is the clearest of all laws; and for this reason — the lawyers didn't make it.”
