In a Lonely Place Trust Bogart not to pick a typical love story, but this tale of drunkeness and psychological strain is new territory even for him.

Plot A screenwriter (Bogart) is given an alibi by a beautiful woman across the hall from him when a young lady is found murdered. Erratic at the best of times, violent at the worst, has our scribe got something to hide? Verdict Ray wrings plenty of sweat from the Hitchcockian premise, and Bogart outdoes himself as a man mid-breakdown.
