Once again Nat Pendleton, one of the better supporting actors during the 1930s and 1940s, shows up for another movie, this time something much more in his genre, a detective mystery thriller and he’s not the only notable actor in this movie either. We also get William Powell with all of his charisma and Myrna Loy who goes pretty well with him with her dry demeanor. All three actors work as a police officer and a couple of detectives to solve a murder mystery, the first in a series of six movies. All three actors will be coming back again later for more movies in the series. The mystery is good but what keeps you coming back is this has the signs of an early action movie with plenty of things going on and a good sense of humor.
