Question
Sorry I can't give you more to go on...A Detective breaks into an office to steal papers.
(possibly office at a nightclub) He's caught in the act and is beaten by the sadistic henchman of
another man "in cahoots" with nightclub owner. Of course, this particular scene could probably apply to a lot of films, I was thinking Dick Powell was the detective but I'm not sure. (I'm probably wrong.) I saw the film on AMC several years ago, and wanted to add it to my collection.) ANY thoughts appreciated! Thanks.

Answer
Hi, Deann..

I am about 75% sure the film you are looking for is called "Murder My Sweet." It was one of Powell's best films... if this is not it, you might try "Cry Danger." But I am leaning toward "Murder My Sweet" on this one...

Lemme know! If these don't fit the bill, I'll keep looking....
