(NOIR) Please Murder Me - 1956 ***1/2


A very good noir. Raymond Burr stars as a lawyer named Craig who begins an affair with his best friend's wife Myra (Lansbury). Soon after his friend is found murdered with Myra at the scene. Adamant that she is innocent, Craig takes over her case at court and gets her off on her murder charge. Soon however, Craig begins to realise that Myra not be as sweet and innocent as he first believed. A typical noir, with double-crossing and dark shadows.
