[From THE MAD MISS MANTON (Leigh Jason), a seriously silly, fun Manhattan Murder Mystery scripted by six separate writers yet actually good, even if the plot is impossible to follow. Barbara Stanwyck and Henry Fonda are the leads, warming up their LADY EVE chemistry — crime-solving socialites is all I ought to have to say to you to get you excited — and the supporting cast has Hattie McDaniel, Sam Levene, John Qualen and Grady Sutton adding various forms of fun. Miles Mander adds thinness.]
