Always enjoyed this film. Among other aspects - the fact that much of it was shot on location in SF in 1949. You got to see a lot of that city that was completely gone by the 80’s.

The only part that could be dropped was the catcalls in the soundtrack when O’Brien’s character is in the hotel during “fashion week” or whatever the convention was. That is just a bizarre addition to an otherwise good piece of noir.
