HALF A SINNER(1940)
In the set: 100 Greatest Mystery Classics


I'm pretty sure this never won any awards of any
kind, but it's fun and breezy and cute! Very much
worth a watch!!! If you really want to know what
it's about, read the review below, but I think
you'd enjoy it more going in blind!! B+

A review from IMDb.com:

Half a Sinner is an engaging little programmer.
Less than one hour long. But never a dull moment.
The tale of a bored young teacher played by Heather
Angel who one day decides to break out of her
boredom and go on an adventure and see some life
before it's too late. On the way she gets
inadvertently involved with a bunch of crooks
and a dead body in a car. She also meets the
man of her dreams. The story is a bit fantastic.
But very entertaining and everybody plays there
part well.

Heather Angel, playing the heroine of the show
is a delight. She belonged to an age when Hollywood
was literally swarming in talent. Many of them
didn't get as far as they might have done due
to how competitive the whole thing was. And
probably Heather Angel deserved a better career
than she actually had. This film is worth seeing
for its entertainment value and I can definitely
recommend it. - ashkakaylee
