Dead Reckoning (U)
Captain ?Rip? Murdock sets out to find out who murdered his war buddy Johnny. Tracing the threads of Johnny?s shadowy past leads Rip to Coral Chandler ? Johnny's former sweetheart, and now a singer at a nightclub run by a brutal gangster.
Is Coral the innocent young woman of Johnny?s past, or a dangerous siren intent on luring Rip into a web of deceit?
In Dead Reckoning, Lizabeth Scott provides film noir with one of its great femme fatales in the form of Coral Chandler ? proving a capable match for genre veteran Humphrey Bogart and his signature tough guy persona.?
