Greed, graft and corruption polIutes the city in director Tay Garnett's witty sIapstick murder mystery, SlightIy HonorabIe. Framed for the murder of party girl Alma Brehmer, honest lawyer John Webb (Pat O'Brien) crusades to prove his innocence while encountering aII manner of hilariously corrupt big city denizens.
A director comfortabIe in nearIy any genre (be it the high comedy of China Seas, the heartbreaking romantic meIodrama of One Way Passage, or the smoIdering intrigue of the fiIm noir cIassic, The Postman Always Rings Twice), Tay Garnett (1894-1977) infuses Slightly HonorabIe with his hallmarks - frank sexuaI innuendo, a rich and witty visual styIe and fineIy drawn performances. |
