@smilegeek123 - Yeah, but LAN's "Naked City" case is only loosely based on the film.

The murdered girl's doctor said she needed a good spanking due to her wild lifestyle. I suppose the same could be said for many "party girls" in this day & age! This is a wonderful movie! One of the niftiest noirs to come out of the 40's!!

"At somewhere in the back of her pretty head was the fixed notion that she couldn't be happy without being rich" What a great line! Take note, America.
