Does anyone know the title of the Humphrey Bogart film in which he and a woman (I think his mistress) attempt to kill his wife? As part of the murder plot, the mistress masquarades as the wife and go to a cinema to create a alibi for Bogey's character. However, the plot goes wrong.


I saw this film about 20 years ago and thought it was brilliant but I never remembered the title.

Thanks Ermintrude35, I was wondering whether it was The Two Mrs Carolls but it isn't. I don't remember whether a guest house featured, it was a long time ago when I saw it. I remember Bogey telling his mistress to go to the cinema dressed like his wife and to make a scene so everyone would remember her and then to go back a week later and be charming and very easy going. I couldn't idenify the film on your link but thanks for posting it.

What about this one ....It's got the alibi tag in it ..so maybe?


Plot Summary for
In a Lonely Place (1950)
Screenwriter Dixon Steele, faced with the odious task of scripting a trashy bestseller, has hat-check girl Mildred Atkinson tell him the story in her own words. Later that night, Mildred is murdered and Steele is a prime suspect; his record of belligerence when angry and his macabre sense of humor tell against him. Fortunately, lovely neighbor Laurel Gray gives him an alibi. Laurel proves to be just what Steele needed, and their friendship ripens into love. Will suspicion, doubt, and Steele's inner demons come between them?

Thanks for your reply Mikeyd2 but I recently watched In A Lonely Place to see if it was the film I am after but it wasn't the one. In A Lonely Place is still worth watching by the way. I'll probably have to go through every one of Bogey's films to identify the one I'm after!
