IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Mill Creek)
A down and out writer discovers the body of a woman on the beach, and is accused by the police of the murder. He manages to escape while entering the courthouse for his trial. He unwittingly involves the daughter of the police chief while on the run and trying to prove his innocence. Together they track down the man who stole his raincoat, the belt of which was used to commit the murder. The final scenes take place in a hotel ballroom in which the murderer is revealed to be a member of the band, all of whom perform in blackface. Somewhat overlooked early Hitchcock.
