When Sally Rand's police detective father is killed to cover up another murder, she goes undercover as a dancer to help crack the case.
Yes, that Sally Rand. She performs a bubble dance in a chiton here. She actually had a significant movie career, going back to 1924, more than thirty in total. This was her last. Between her presence, the original title of "The Sunset Strip Murder Case", and the collapse of Grand National, release was delayed three years. It didn't do her co-stars, including Reed Hadley and Kathryn Kane much good either.
What survives is an OK movie. Miss Rand does a total of two dances here, and it's certainly Code-compliant. Apparently Boston, which banned the movie, objected to Miss Rand rather than anything on screen. There's no mystery involved, just a matter of the big brains involved, figuring things out.
