Sunday Movie Time: "Please Murder Me (1956)

Today's movie is another film noir classic, "Please Murder Me" from 1956. It stars everyone's favorite courtroom defender, Raymond Burr. No, today he plays Craig Carlson, not Perry Mason. He is defending Angela Lansbury who plays Myra Leeds, the wife of Perry's best friend Joe Leeds Played by Dick Foran. Angela is accused of murdering her husband, Perry's best friend. That's a good plot device already...Laywer defends the murderer of his best friend and that murderer turns out to be the best friends wife. Hmmmmm.......

Lots more surprises are in store on this one and since I hate to spoil the surprises I will keep quiet on the rest of the movie.......except.......to add this warning: Remember that the dead can come back to spoil our plans!!!!!! Hmmmmmm........

Anyway, the movie lasts 75 minutes and is well worth the price of admission today! Also keep an eye out for John Dehner (A great radio, movie, and TV actor) and Denver Pyle (Mr. Darling on The Andy Griffith Show and Uncle Jesse on The Dukes of Hazzard).

Now get the popcorn, peanuts, and Dr Pepper......It's Movie Time!!!!!!!!!!
