Friday, Aug. 16 - Stolen Assignment

Stolen Assignment (1955)

Henry Crossley is an artist whose wife is spending a week’s holiday with her aunt. But when her aunt comes to see him, worried because her niece has not arrived, a police investigation into her disappearance begins. It seems that Henry has a pretty solid alibi.

(Meanwhile,) a young female reporter, tired of the lightweight women's stories her editor keeps assigning her, pesters him to give her an assignment with more substance. When an artist's rich wife is murdered, the pair (Hy Hazell and John Bentley play reporters on the same newspaper who are rivals for scoops on the murder investigation.) try to help a detective--who doesn't want their help at all--solve the case.
