Dishonored Lady (1947)



A fashion editor of a slick Manhattan magazine by day and a lively party girl by night suffers under the pressures of her job, including kowtowing to a hefty advertiser, and her bad luck with men are driving her to a breakdown.

Lively woman's picture with a crime story thrown in for good measure entertains thanks to Hedy lamarr's competent performance and excellent Noir cinematography.

Halliwell (no star): "Melodramatic showpiece designed for herself by a glamorous star; OK for the silly season."

Maltin**: "Adequate drama..."
