Author: Miller Movies (miller-movies@prodigy.net) from Jacksonville, Florida

Torchy Blaine, aptly played by Glenda Farrell, has to figure out who-done-it as a staged murder turns out to be the real thing. This is the third in the Torchy Blaine series. Excellent in all regards, and especially recommended if you like some mystery in your screwball comedies, or vice versa. 9.
