Murder Is My Beat
ONE LOOK from a speeding train! ONE SCREAM from a frightened girl! ONE CHANCE to turn the tables on murder!
Directed by Edgar G. Ulmer
Produced by Masthead Productions
A classic film noir murder mystery built on mistaken identity and paranoia, where a convicted woman must prove her innocence while on the run with a skeptical detective.
Mr. Dean's body is found face down in the fireplace, burned beyond recognition. Nightclub-singer Eden Lane is convicted of the crime. She is escorted to prison by one of the arresting detectives when she convinces him that she just spotted the murderer outside their train.
