Girl in the News 1940 DVD - Margaret Lockwood / Barry K. Barnes

Nurse Anne Graham is controversially—but rightly—acquitted of murder after her elderly patient dies under suspicious circumstances. Attempting to put the past behind her, Anne changes her name and accepts a new position caring for the wheelchair-bound Edward Bentley. Unbeknownst to her, Bentley's wife and the butler are lovers conspiring to set Anne up. When Bentley is found dead, it appears to be a repeat of the earlier case, placing Anne in jeopardy once again.
