Schwaches Alibi (1954)
Polizeichef Joe Conroy versucht alles, um den verdächtigen Mörder Al Willis des Mordes zu überführen. Er ist wie besessen von dem Fall und verliert darüber sogar seinen Job. Bei dem Versuch, Willis zu provozieren, führt ihn sein Weg in eine mexikanische Grenzstadt, in der Willis ein Doppelleben als Gauner führt. Hier begegnet er der Sängerin Marianna, die eine sagenhafte Anziehungskraft auf Männer ausübt. Sie verliebt sich in Conroy - doch kann er ihr wirklich vertrauen?
