The story begins with a woman, 'Mary Smith', having her purse stolen. A do-gooder captures the thief and the trio are taken to the police station to file a report. Immediately after, there's an investigation into the murder of the District Attorney. What do the two event have to do with each other? And, how does the reporter 'Scoop' (Raymond Hatton) have to do with all this?
"Alias Mary Smith" is clearly a B-movie. Its run-time is only about an hour and was produced by tiny Ralph M. Like Productions. So, this means that top talent and writers are NOT what you'd expect...nor should you.
So is it any good? Not really. The film end up being very talky....with very little energy or action. Additionally, while the acting wasn't bad, it wasn't very good either. All in all, a dull cheap little film that is, at best, a time-passer. About the only thing I liked seeing was Raymond Hatton, who usually played supporting roles in westerns.
