The Blue Dahlia (19-Apr-1946)
Director: George E. Marshall Writer: Raymond Chandler Producer: John Houseman Keywords: Mystery, Film Noir In this B-noir, Alan Ladd plays a navy pilot returns home from WWII to find his wife unfaithful and drunk, and leaves her. After her murder, police consider him their prime suspect and he must attempt to prove his innocence before they apprehend him. Crisp dialogue and good supporting actors; plot meanders a bit. One of four good thrillers pairing Ladd and Veronica Lake.
