A film starring Ray Milland and Paulette Goddard (United Artists, 1943).

A woman filling in for a psychic falls for the man she's supposed to be conning.

B (Good).

It's just an unremarkable romcom, but it has likable characters and no significant story problems - which, on second thought, is somewhat remarkable.

(Oct. 2022)

Bob Hope pretends to be a private detective and is framed for murder.

2/4 (Indifferent).

The jokes are weirdly sparse. It's a long 85 minutes.

(May 2022)

Shortly before his execution on the death row in San Quentin, amateur sleuth and baby photographer Ronnie Jackson, tells reporters how he got there.
