    Where to Watch

A fanciful woman (Betty Hutton) confesses to a murder to gain her lawyer-husband (Sonny Tufts) some publicity. Michael Chekhov. Prosecutor: Rhys Williams. Flynn: Alan Bridge. Eve: Ruth Donnelly. Miss Baggart: Iris Adrian. Previously filmed as "True Confession."

Screwball comedy has Hutton taking the rap for a murder she did not commit in order to showcase the talents of her fiance, lawyer Tufts, in defending her. Even wacky Hutton's antics can't take the minds of the audience off the criminal job the scriptwriters pulled in calling this remake of TRUE CONFESSION "entertainment." Songs: "Love Is the Darndest Thing," "That Little Dream Got Nowhere," "How Do You Do It?" "Does Baby Feel Alright?" "It Hasn't Been Chilly in Chile" (Johnny Burke, Jimmy Van Heusen), and "Cross My Heart" (Robert Emmett Dolan, Larry Neill).
