Ann Savage, Hugh Beaumont, Charles Hicks, and Charles Brown star in a PRC production directed by Sam Newfield and adapted from a true story by Fred Myton about a man who falls in love with a married woman, married to a much older man who she wants to kill for the insurance on him. After killing him, his business manager is accused and sentenced to die. The conclusion is exciting. The 67 minute film moves quickly and I've ranked this one #19 on my top 100 list. Beaumont and Savage are good co-stars and seem to work well together. A honorable mention goes to Charles Brown as the editor of the newspaper where reporter Beaumont (Kenny Blake) works for. I believe that this film shows that a lot of money is not necessary to produce a very watchable film. My copy was in good quality condition and the score uncredited to Leo Erdody was very passable. Forget the comparison to "Double Indemnity" and enjoy it. Wasn't "A Postman Always Rings Twice" by Cain also similar?
