Smart Alec (II) (1951)
"You Incompetent Dunderhead!"...

Warning: Spoilers
In SMART ALEC, a man named Alec Albion (Peter Reynolds) and his wife, move into a new, top floor, luxury apartment. Alec has moved in to be close to his rich uncle. It's clear from the beginning that he's up to something.

When the uncle is found dead, Alec seems to have concocted the perfect alibi. Officers from Scotland Yard arrive, believing it's an open-and-shut case with Albion as their only suspect.

However, though motive is certainly obvious, the method by which the crime was committed proves to be... elusive.

Packed with oddball characters, dry to wacky British humor, and a novel homicide, SMART ALEC, though preposterous, is a lot of fun to watch!

At less than an hour in length, it zips right along...
