Sherry Scott (Humphrey Bogart) is a tough programmer at The United Broadcasting Company. The owner wants more popular lower class programs. He wants to do a program about an old murder, the Gloria Pembrook murder case 20 years earlier. Sherry has to make up the murder drama about the woman and his secretary Alma Ross (Beverly Roberts) does not approve. It turns out that Gloria was justified in shooting her husband. She got the new name Martha Carstairs and her daughter Edith is about to marry Malcolm Sims Jr., heir to a big steel fortune. The fear of this program "Sin doesn't pay", leads to tragedy.
The premise is intriguing and has relevance for today. Only the morality is viewed differently today. In fact, it could be seen as quaint but it still matters. It gets a bit preachy at the end. It may be more convincing if Bogie could turn down the indignation by a hair. He should leave it to Reynolds and the doctor to make an ass of themselves.
