Review of Unmasked

Unmasked (1950)
6/10
Republic noir
21 September 2021
Our Miss Brooks' Robert Rockwell stars with Raymond Burr, Barbara Fuller, Hillary Brooke, and John Eldredge in Unmasked, a Republic noir.

A very formidable Burr play a tabloid editor, Roger Lewis, Roger Lewis, who is seeing Linda Jackson (Fuller) the wife of a producer, Harry Jackson (Paul Harvey). She's investing in one of his ventures, but in fact, her husband is now broke. She wants to sell her jewels and divorce him.

Lewis is only interested in the jewels. Meanwhile, Jackson, afraid his wife is going to throw the jewels away on Lewis, has taken them. After Lewis fights with her husband, kills him, and takes the jewels, he kills Linda and frames her husband.

Robert Rockwell plays the detective trying to find the murderer.

Interesting for Raymond Burr. People probably don't realize that Robert Rockwell had a long career - if anyone remembers the grandfather in the Werther's candy commercial - that was him.
