Viewing Notes

Forgot most of this one except for Nick Jr, who thankfully is only in a couple of the opening scenes. The mystery is solid with a good cast of suspects including the gorgeous Donna Reed.

According to the Robert Osborne (RIP) intro this was the last Thin Man flick directed by Woody Van Dyke bc he took his life two years the release. Crazy.
