That's a fantastic late-'40s, early-'50s cast.

I have to add, sadly, that Carole didn’t make it to the ‘50s.

This was a good one and only an hour long. It held my interest throughout. Even back then, members of the press were bumbling dimwits.

Thank you. Might I suggest for next week “The Asphalt Jungle'' with Sterling Hayden, Louis Calhern and Sam Jaffe? Great film.

Good movie! Halfway through it took an unexpected comedic turn for a bit. It was funny and not over the top.

Thanks for the ping!

Looks like another good choice from the noir library.

Carole Landis--an actress dead by sleeping pills in 1948--age 29. Hollywood romance with Rex Harrison gone bad.

R.I.P.
