Having a Wonderful Crime (1945) with Pat O'brien, George Murphy, Carole Landis, George Zucco. Zany mystery/action/comedy. I'd put it under "B" movies although they were shooting for the 'Thin Man" genre. Lots of fast-talking and clever banter amidst ongoing murders. It's a worthy genre they're shooting for but they didn't succeed and it falls flat. Jokes/banter weren't good enough.
Couple going on honeymoon attends magic show and the man who's supposed to disappear in the trunk keeps showing up dead here and there.
O'brien: "I'm coming along with you two." Murphy: "You can't go with us, we're on our honeymoon!" O'brien: "That's okay, I'm broadminded."
The cable-guide gave this 3 stars but I would give it two or less.
