Affair in Trinidad (1952)

After her husband is murdered on the island of Trinidad, Rita Hayworth is asked by the investigators to exploit his alleged murderer’s attraction to her to gather information about a Nazi conspiracy he is likely the ringleader of. Complicating matters, her husband’s brother Glenn Ford arrives on the island after receiving a letter the brother sent on the day he died. The plot meanders quite a bit, especially with a forced relationship between Hayworth and Ford. Ford is a bit of a stick in the mud and their chemistry is lacking, but Hayworth is radiant as always.
