Time to Kill (1942)

 'Time to Kill' is the final of Lloyd Nolan's, Micheal Shayne films, the reason it's the last is that Fox shut down their B movie unit at the end of 1942, presumably as a cost saving measure because of the war. The plot concerns the disapernce of a valuable old coin. The leading ladies are Heather Angel, best known for doing voice work for Disney in the 50's and Doris Merrick who lived to be 100 years old. While this is the shortest (59 minutes), seems the cheapest and most lazily put together of the Shayne films, likley because they were wraping up operations. it still has its charms. Shayne ends the film with yet another fiance.**
