Amateur detective Tom Lawrence (Tom Conway) discovers the corpse of an actor on a film set, and gets drawn into the investigation.
This was the first Falcon movie I've seen. It was entertaining enough, and I quite liked Tom Conway. Veda Ann Borg was really annoying as a female taxi-driver, and John Abbott was pretty hammy as a Shakespearean quoting film producer. Barbara Hale (who later played Della Street on Perry Mason) was quite good, and Konstantine Shayne was good as the Erich von Stroheim-like director.
The identity of the murder suspect was pretty easy to guess though. All in all, it was good.
