Review :

Solid film noir with a great premise

The story of a newspaper editor who kills his wife in a crime of passion who then has to watch the reporters he trained himself attempt to solve the crime, Scandal Sheet is a clever, dark noir film. Broderick Crawford gives a good performance the editor, Donna Reed is, well, Donna Reed - she doesn't extend much in her acting, and John Derek played a decent role as the intrepid reporter/protegee of Crawford.

This was a clever premise in that we find out immediately who the killer is, which forces the audience to sweat through the discovery process with Crawford. The mentor/protegee angle is strong in this film, which validates the end result. A good movie to check out on a rainy day.
