My Favorite Brunette**
US 1947. Paramount. 87m. bw

A baby photographer turns detective when a beautiful woman is involved in a sinister plot to steal uranium from the US Government.
Amiable spoof private eye thriller where ironically the look of the film is conversely much brighter than the conventional noir, with a similarly lightweight dramatic effect, but some characteristic star turns.
