... View More...and this was a real mystery, as far as why it was made."Dangerous Lady" from 1941 is about a husband and wife, Duke Martindale and his wife, Phyllis, an excellent attorney.They are working to clear a woman falsely accused of murdering a judge.Two people who know what happened end up dead.Duke and Phyllis sally forth, despite a big car chase and being held prisoners themselves.This wasn't very good. It's from a Poverty Row studio, and as the other review alluded, they did these films in a few days with no retakes. June Storey and Neil Hamilton (the Commissioner on Batman) were good. I just wish I could have seen them; the print I watched was dreadful, as if it had been copied from a copy. Probably was.June Storey was actually a costar of Gene Autry for ten films, and while she was alive, she appeared at western and memorabilia shows. She retired early on.Both of them deserved better.

The rest of the cast, alas, isn't up to their acting ability and make a mess of the story. Some interesting early film-noir photography and the leads make this watchable.
