A case of mistaken identity, in this B film, from monogram. When someone turns up dead, dancer tom quinn (don castle) is blamed for the crime. He and his wife must figure out what's going on before things go too far south for quinn. Circumstantial evidence keeps bringing the coppers back to quinn, and he knows it looks bad. The only name i recognize in here is regis toomey.. he's detective judd, who is sure he's got the right guy. The script and the music are pretty lame. Everyone does a pretty good job with what they are given. Quinn's wife backs up his story in court, but clearly, most wives would. It's not bad. And not as predictable as I thought it was going to be. According to turner classics, the book ended quite differently than the film. That may explain some of the edits and choices. It's mostly good. Directed by bill nigh. He had worked with boris karloff a bunch of times, sometimes in mister wong mysteries. Castle died quite young at 48. And how did regis toomey never win an oscar? He was in some pretty big films... big sleep, girl friday, and spellbound.
