Nancy Guild (October 11, 1925 – August 16, 1999) had a short-lived film and television career, but she started with two female lead roles in two film noir movies at Fox - "Somewhere In The Night" (1946), and "The Brasher Doubloon" (1947) - the later being an adaptation of Raymond Chandler's novel "The High Window". Physically, she looked like a cross between Gene Tierney and Lauren Bacall. I think she had an interesting presence and it would have been great if she had made more films. Fittingly, Ella Fitzgerald's "Somewhere In The Night" is the background music.
