Murder by an Aristocrat

Bayard Thatcher, the black sheep of a storied family, has announced that he will leave for good provided the others pay him $25,000. Unfortunately, they are not that liquid at the moment, due to lingering effects of the Great Depression. That night, Thatcher is shot in his bed but only wounded. As he recovers, his doctor and nurse try to discern his assailant's identity while also protecting him from any attempts to finish the job.

A familiar tale of a distasteful member of the family meeting his demise but not after a lot of set-up. The person who figures out the murder is Marguerite Churchill who plays a nurse, and the denouement was quite complicated- had to rewind a few times. My head was spinning, but it's an entertaining mystery that kept my interest.

Filming began with Margaret Lindsay cast as Sally Keating. Lindsay left the project after her close friend Thelma Todd's mysterious death from carbon monoxide poisoning.

They keep referring to the revolver, when in fact it is a semi-automatic. (In fairness, none of the characters are gun experts and may well have been using the term generically.)
