Black Angel (1946)


When a man is convicted of a singer's murder, his wife tries to prove him innocent...aided by the victim's ex-husband.

Exemplary Film Noir gem, and an excellent Cornell Woolrich adaptation, complete with a 'happy ending' that isn't happy at all.

Halliwell*: "Stylish but empty version of a tired theme, interesting for performances and atmosphere."
