Quai des Orfevres 

Jenny Lamour is a nightclub singer with a jealous pianist husband, Maurice, who she loves and is faithful to, despite his periodic jealous rages and his constant suspicion (not to mention his general frumpiness, a stark contrast to her luscious pin-up beauty). Jenny is also ambitious though, and she accepts the attentions of the lascivious movie mogul Brignon. She naïvely believes that she can attain fame without giving in to the producer's notorious penchant for bedding his stars. Obviously, things go badly awry, and on the night Brignon turns up dead, both Jenny and the jealous Maurice have been at Brignon's home at different times, with flimsy but convoluted alibis to cover up their activities.
