Affair in Trinidad

US (1952): Drama/Film-Noir/Thriller

When Steve Emery (Glenn Ford) arrives in Trinidad at the urgent request of his brother, he is stunned to find that his brother has not only been murdered, but that his brother's wife, Chris (Rita Hayworth), is succumbing to the seduction attempts of the murderer. His feelings are further exacerbated when he discovers that he, too, is becoming strongly attracted to Chris, who is a steamy cabaret singer. She, in turn, is playing off one against the other while betraying the secrets of both men to the police, for whom she is secretly working. Vincent Sherman directs for Columbia. Cast also includes Alexander Scourby, Valerie Bettis and Torin Thatcher. Jo Ann Greer dubbed two songs for Hayworth: "I've Been Kissed Before" and "Trinidad Lady." (Alfred Jingle, IMDb)
