Saw this 1953 anti-Commie film noir flick the other day and wondered if anyone knew what record was playing on Thelma Ritter's portable 78 player when she got her head blown off. The camera gracefully panned from her face right before she was shot to the record player. It almost looks like a '20s Brunswick 78 is playing, but I can't tell. It seemed to match the soundtrack so I don't think the record was dubbed.
