Playgirl

1954 NR 1h 25m 5.8

A naive Nebraska girl dreams of success in New York where she immerses herself in the glitzy glamorous life of the nightlife and the nightclubs frequented by rich playboys, but murder and manipulative people eventually burst her bubble.

Nightclub singer Fran Davis is out to educate her out-of-town friend Phyllis Matthews on the ins-and-outs of life in the Big City. But, par for the course in this Joseph Pevney potboiler, publisher Mike Marsh, Fran's unhappily-married lover, falls in love with Phyllis. There is a misunderstanding of the situation by the two girls. The girls quarrel, Marsh is shot, Fran hits the skids, and she and Phyllis, to say the least, are on the outs. Then, when Fran learns that Phyllis is about to be used unwittingly as a decoy in a murder, she rides to her friend's rescue.
