Actress Paula Marlowe (Virginia Grey) is thrilled when her attorney fiancé (Kent Taylor) helps an affluent playboy beat a manslaughter rap—since the defendant’s uncle is bankrolling her new show. But when Miss Marlowe gets cozy with any man who furthers her career, her fiancé has a final curtain planned for her. Perennial second lead Grey has a field day romping through this low-rent backstage murder mystery.
