Dead Reckoning

Opening with Humphrey Bogart in flight in a dark but Southern city, John Cromwell directing him to a church where we learn he's ex-paratrooper Rip and James Bell is sky-diving priest Logan, but the story, for now, is about Johnny (William Prince), in Dead Reckoning, 1947, also starring Lizabeth Scott.

Rip (Humphrey Bogart), still narrating in flashback as he tracks his probably-murdered war-buddy, has found his ex-singer ex-gal Constance (Lizabeth Scott), to whom he breaks the news, then meets her slick ex-boss Martinelli (Morris Carnovsky), in Columbia's Dead Reckoning, 1947.

Just back from France, Murdock (Humphrey Bogart) was introducing Medal Of Honor-winning paratroop pal Johnny (William Prince) to the press when he split, so, narrating in flashback, he follows to a noir-ish Gulf Coast city, looking him up by another name, in Columbia's Dead Reckoning, 1947.
