Many times these B Movies were even better than their A counterparts as they eliminated many useless side issues & just stuck to the story. Morris as always is excellent with great support from Ciannelli

In most of Chester Morris movies he was always well dressed and possessed a slight laugh and smile in a lot of his lines in the movie. That was his trademark in doing a lot of his scenes.

In the field of classical music there is a wide range of outstanding composers and compositions, from the best-known to the least-known and overlooked. They all offer different experiences, and it is the same thing with films like this. Smaller budgets, shorter film length (so-called B-films) versus full-blown spectacles. This is a gem, and whatever flaws it may have are like wrinkles - they are ther and the add to it. Thank you posting this neat movie!

I enjoyed this film. I remember seeing Chester Morris as Boston Blackie on Saturday mornings as a child. He was very good in this film.

Check out Chester Morris in "The Bat Whispers". Unusual role for him. He was also good in "5 Came Back".

You know, we are all knowledgeable that the treatment the “young couple” received really happened all over the country. It is reassuring that that harshness of the interrogation is quite so bad as previously, but I would lay money it is still objectionable to some extent. The portion of the pic where police enter rooms shooting, I’m sure was also somewhat based on reality. We’d like to think not, but that would be foolish. The movie itself was very entertaining. These old b&w detective movies are usually very good. Ty for the upload.

Ciannelli was born in Lacco Ameno, on the island of Ischia, where his father, a doctor, owned a health spa. He studied surgery at the University of Naples, and worked briefly as a doctor, but his love of grand opera and the dramatic stage won out and he became a successful baritone, singing at La Scala and touring Europe. Go figure.

Ciannelli was one intensely scary dude.

Entertaining little film, which is all it was meant to be in the first first place. The leads all do good work (Morris, especially, was underrated during his career, but there has been renewed interest in him during recent years). To enjoy these types of films, you have to look at them from the aspect of the time they were made and film conventions of the era.
