An almost hallucinatory mix of booze, broads, missing corpses, more booze, gangsters, grave robbing, gun play, even more booze and the occasional combination salad, The Lady in the Morgue plays out in '30s Chicago, with all the wisecracking detectives, street-savvy dames, and booze you could ever ask for. Oh, and the protagonists drink a lot of booze.
