Somewhere In The Night (1946) John Hodiak, Nancy Guild, Lloyd Nolan and Richard Conte

In the final weeks of World War II, a bandage-wrapped man awakens with amnesia in a U.S. military field hospital. As he recovers, he learns that he is George W. Taylor, a Marine who was severely wounded by a grenade. Among Taylor’s personal items is an unsigned letter that curses him something that he may have done to the writer. Taylor hides his amnesia and resolves to uncover his original identity. Taylor begins his investigation in Los Angeles and finds a note in his old briefcase advising him that an account had been opened in his name at a local bank by a friend named Larry Cravat. Taylor searches for Cravat, leading him to a nightclub called the Cellar. Taylor asks people there for information about Cravat, but two thugs become suspicious. To evade them, Taylor slips into the dressing room of singer Christy Smith, where he finds an old postcard directed to her from a woman named Mary announcing her impending marriage to Cravat.
