A VERY SOULFUL, FILM NOIR-ISH PERRY MASON EP. WEDNESDAY 8:00 P.M. EASTERN FET

Screenshot 2024-06-26 at 1.30.50 PM.png

 

 

8:00 p.m. Eastern, Wednesday FETV --  Perry Mason,  "The Case of the Empty Tin".     Raymond Burr, Barbara Hale, William Hopper, Ray Collins, William Talman, Toni Gerry, Warren Stevens, Olive Deering, Benson Fong, Mary Shipp, Anthony Jochim, Frank Wilcox

 

Arguably, one of the best episodes.  A financially strapped young woman in San Francisco is urged by her friend, an elderly camera shop owner, to present herself as the long-lost heiress to a huge fortune.  She has strong reason to believe that she is indeed, the missing heiress.

But there are other, aggressive claimants, a suave, slippery lawyer who "vets" them, and a jealous secretary with potent knowledge of secrets...  what's a young woman to do, but to enlist a truth-seeking Perry in her hazardous quest...

 

There's something very haunting and noir-ish about this one--  not to be missed!
