The lady editor of a crime magazine hires Phillip Marlowe to find the wife of her boss. The private detective soon finds himself involved in murder.
Superficially it seems another Marlowe film noir, yet with a few twists. First is the subjective camera angles. You never saw it before, and it works surprisingly well. Montgomery, in his career, if he had only done this film, and HERE COMES MR JORDAN, he would have carved a legacy. But he also directed Ride a Pink Horse.
