A Shriek in the Night

A philanthropist falls from his penthouse, he was pushed, the residents of the building are the suspects, and three more are strangled before two rival reporters get to the basement and the furnace. Ginger Rogers and Lyle Talbot again, the pair from The Thirteenth Guest, on a poverty-row schedule with a few sets and a great deal of shadow. Rogers was months away from Flying Down to Rio, and the film is a record of what she was doing while she waited. Albert Ray for Allied Pictures, 1933, sixty-six minutes.
