Death of a Scoundrel
Thanks to gossip columnists, movie goers needed just one look at the title to know who starred in Death of a Scoundrel. George Sanders’s scandalous reputation was perfect fodder for this cheeky melodrama about a murdered gigolo and his long line of jilted lovers, and it’s helped by a beautiful line up of suspects including Zsa Zsa Gabor (Sanders’ real-life ex-wife) and Yvonne de Carlo. Director Charles Martin also wrote and produced the film and had the good taste to hire the brilliant James Wong Howe as his cinematographer.
