Giornalista-detective se ne va in vacanza. In un bar conosce l'amante del suo editore. Poco dopo la donna viene trovata morta; in casa ha un oggetto che il giornalista aveva appena comprato e poi dimenticato da lei. In realtà l'omicida è l'editore; tra i due inizia un confronto drammatico. Un eccellente noir, tra i più riusciti di quegli anni, torbido e teso. Nel ruolo dell'editore omicida un grande Charles Laughton.Leggi di piùLeggi di meno
