This is a nice twist on the "I'm investigating myself" motif, as William Gargan tries to wriggle out of a bad situation, with a fun femme fatale performance by Janis Carter. The title is misleading -- the "night editor" is simply relating the story, which is entirely told in flashback -- but provides a nice little capper at the end. This film has a sharp edge and some sizzling dialogue. Lots of fun.
