Lucille Ball is a quick witted dame with a New York edge, hunting for a serial killer in between war Britain. The stars are big, but the movie feels like a small play. It never rises to the thrills or suspense of other noirs, nor the comedy of Lucy. It sits in a pleasent in-between with witty lines, Lucy's knowing looks, and a cast of obvious characters. It is novel to see Lucille Ball play for drama, but otherwise it is one of many small productions from that time.
