:''For the 1954 DuMont TV series, see Night Editor (TV series).'' ''Night Editor'' is a 1946 B-movie film noir directed by Henry Levin and based on a popular radio program of the same name. The script for the film was based on a previous radio program episode "Inside Story."〔.〕 The movie was to be the first in a series of films featuring stories about the graveyard-shift police beat reporters at fictional newspaper, the ''New York Star'', but no other ''Night Editor'' films were made. ==Plot== Crane Stewart (Charles D. Brown), the editor of the ''New York Star,'' while playing poker with his friends, tells a story about a cop involved in a murder investigation. In flashback, the editor tells the tale of police lieutenant Tony Cochrane (William Gargan), a family man who cheats on his wife with socialite ''femme fatale'' Jill Merrill (Janis Carter). Cochrane and the woman, who is also cheating on her husband, witness a man bludgeoning his girlfriend to death with a tire iron while the couple is parked at "lovers lane" by the beach. The two can't report the crime without revealing their cheating, a dilemma which eventually leads to bigger troubles. Meanwhile, Cochrane must investigate the killing but is not able to tell anyone he witnessed the crime. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Night Editor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
