Apology for Murder
Apology for Murder is a 1945 American film noir directed by Sam Newfield and starring Ann Savage, Hugh Beaumont, Russell Hicks and Charles D. Brown.
The plot of" Apology for Murder" is a blatant rip-off of the seminal film noir" Double Indemnity" which was released the previous year.
The production company Producers Releasing Corporation, one of the B movie studios of Hollywood ’s Poverty Row, wanted to take advantage of" Double Indemnity's" huge success and originally intended to call the film" Single Indemnity".
However Paramount Pictures, the production company of" Double Indemnity", got wind of it and obtained an injunction.
PRC then changed the title to" Apology for Murder".
Much acclaimed B movie director Edgar G. Ulmer, who was working at PRC at the time" Apology for Murder" was made, claimed during a conversation with Peter Bogdanovich that he wrote the original" Single Indemnity" script for producer Sigmund Neufeld.
However, he erroneously believed that the film made from it was finally released under the title" Blonde Ice", which is a totally different film produced by Film Classics.
