Curiosidades
When Police Lt. Joe Warne says, "I like that alibi. It's round, it's firm, it's fully packed.", he is riffing on a phrase often used in advertising for Lucky Strike cigarettes at the time: "So round, so firm, so fully packed."

Pifias
The exterior shot of the Pantages Theatre shows RKO's De hoy en adelante (1946) on the marquee, which indeed was being shown there in June 1946 when Nocturne was filmed. However, in the close-up at the box-office, RKO's Una mujer en la playa (1947) is on the time schedule; the latter film was in production at the same time as Nocturne, but, due to unforeseen production delays, did not open at the Pantages until over a year later, in July 1947.

Citas
Susan: He was a ladykiller. But don't get any ideas. I ain't no lady.

Reseña destacada

little screened melodic noir entertaining and suspenseful

From the initial scene chronicling the murder central to the plot of Nocturne as seen from the killer's vantage point, this movie has much to sustain the viewer's interest. Whenever a stock line or situation makes you feel this is a typical hardboiled cop flick, another plot twist or cinemotographic trick changes your mind. Portions of the movie shot after hours in a deserted photographic studio remind the viewer of Harrison's Hitchcockian associations with palpable suspense. George Raft shows surprising likeability as the lead, and Lynn Bari lends sparky support as one of the ranks of the victim's past conquests-or was she?-who just might hold a clue to the identity of the deadly Dolores. If you have a chance to see this film, grab it-although it was a successful and high grossing film at the time of its release in 1946, it is extremely difficult to rent, view, or purchase today. And the music, so evocative of the forties' nightclub allure, is great.
