IMDB
IMDB Rating: 6.7/10
Directed by: Richard Wallace
Starring: Loretta Young, Brian Aherne, Jeff Donnell

Storyline: A woman rents a gloomy basement apartment in Greenwich Village, thinking it will provide the perfect atmosphere for her mystery writer husband to create his next book. They soon find themselves in the middle of a real-life mystery when a corpse turns up in their apartment.

This wasn't as good as advertised, at least in my opinion. It was still fairly entertaining.

This movie was a "Thin Man" wannabe with a husband-and-wife team (Brian Aherene and Loretta Young, romancing, making smart remarks and solving a murder mystery.

Some of the remarks might have been funny or clever 65 years ago but they appear dated and not as good today. And, all the "darlings" mouthed during the film got annoying. It sounds so affected nowadays.

It wasn't a big-name cast but it was an interesting one with the always-mysterious Gale Sondegaard and Sidney Toler of Charlie Chan fame. Others were Jeff Donnell, William Wright, Donald McBride, Lee Patrick, Don Costello and Richard Gaines.

It might have been "A Night To Remember" but it wasn't a movie to remember.
