Affair In Trinidad - 1952 - 6/10

Chris’s husband commits suicide.
Or did he? Police smell murder.
As luck would have it, her brother-in-law appears and starts poking his nose about.
Rita Hayworth and Glenn Ford reteam, and once again he plays a snarling jealous moron.
Meanwhile, there are suspicious European ex-pats runs by a calculating smoothie (Alexander Scourby).
Plot is muddy because of rival mysteries, both poorly delineated.
Hayworth does two numbers. First one is over the top and silly. The second is gold.
Don’t think about Gilda when watching this mediocre potboiler.
