Susan Hayward
Interesting back-lot mystery from 1944. A nasty woman is found dead and a growing coterie of night people schlep around NYC trying to find the killer. A naive sailor is initially suspected but nobody believes this including him.
During this period studios were pumping out dozens of B pictures like this one. This had snappy dialogue, not very believable storyline, good acting and a happy ending. It could serve as the quintessential 40's noir.
