Kind of fun, and the lead characters have a certain charisma still for a movie from the 40s. Everybody keeping shut about what happened was interesting. The ending left me a bit dubious however, as it was so convenient it had me thinking this was a misdirection, only for the credits to then roll. Harmless noir-ish movie over all.

Lacks the oomph to make this Cover Up (1949) come alive. I mean, It's a cozy Christmas noir. And that's the thing. It's too cozy for a noir-ish experience. Though it does slowly build-up to a good mystery.

Bendix is a lot of fun and the wintery atmosphere is well done, but otherwise it's pretty dull. The first half is better than the second.
