Reception

Critic Leonard Maltin wrote that of the three Monogram Shadow films released in 1946, The Missing Lady was "the best of the series, played like a straight film noir and offering a few surprise twists."[2]

gollark: And after just 20ish months and hundreds of millions of doses administered!
gollark: It seems like it's already quite bad, and this would presumably be good for the booster shots some places are talking about.
gollark: With the mRNA/viral vector vaccines, it would be pretty easy to swap out the spike protein for delta-variant ones and probably get better immunity to it, right? Is anyone doing this? It seems like a very obvious idea.
gollark: This "gematria" thing reminds me of that excellent excessively pun-heavy bible fanfiction I read but not funny.
gollark: Like the xkcd about playing conspiracy theories off against each other?
