Review

film noir about a sailor who wakes up not knowing where he got $1300. through some investigation (thanks to the help of a nightclub dancer) he finds that he got it from a woman who is now…(wait for it)…dead. similar to black angel and other noirs that probe the potential of the protagonist. alcohol can make you do some wacky things and we’re all capable of these black out moments, is what these films seem to indicate. black angel is better, but this one is nice enough.  .
