Nifty B Movie Mystery - Blind Spot
This film has poor production values, but the script is not one of them; it is engrossing. I had bad vibes in the first ten minutes of this film because Chester Morris did such a horrible job playing a drunk. He recovers, however, and finally becomes the tough guy he was known for in similar films.
The plot centers upon a writer who may have killed his publisher (how many thousand suspects could that bring?). There is, of course, the romantic interest, the innocent? Blond who was the secretary of the publisher, a gentle detective story writer who was a friend of the publisher, and a bartender, as well as an elevator operator.
There is also a not-to-bright detective working on the case, who is very good at jumping to conclusions and sniffing red herrings.
The film is both entertaining and amusing at the same time and worth viewing from a mystery standpoint.
