The more I hear William Powell, the more I think he is the vocal double of George Sanders. Maybe it's because they interchanged some of these amateur detective roles, but when I listen... Anyway, here he ("Clay") is asked by his pal "Tim" (Leslie Fenton) to look into the disappearance of dancer "Alice" quite a while ago! Off to her theatre the pair go, accompanied by our enthusiastic sleuthing sidekick "Donna"…
