HIS LORDSHIP GOES TO PRESS (1938) June Clyde, Hugh Williams & Louise Hampton | Comedy | B&W
Hollywood Stadium Mystery is a 1938 American film directed by David Howard.
SYNOPSIS
A boxer is killed in the ring, and the only clue is a tune that a man was whistling.
A rivalry develops between a district attorney named Devons, who finds murder mysteries amusing but amateurish, and Pauline Ward, a crime novelist. They play tricks on one another, attempting to prove their point over how to solve a crime.
One night before a prizefight, when the lights are momentarily dimmed, a boxer is suddenly killed in the ring. The only clue Devons and Ward have is a tune that a man was whistling. The police detain every spectator from ringside, considering them all as suspects, including Edna Mayberry, a woman who had an involvement with the dead fighter. Pauline is threatened in a dressing room before the case is solved.
