Murder Is My Beat is a 1955 film noir mystery film directed by Edgar G. Ulmer starring Paul Langton, Barbara Payton and Robert Shayne.
Businessman Fred Deane is found dead with his face and hands burned beyond recognition. Detectives Patrick (Langton) and Rawley (Shayne) arrest Deane's girlfriend, nightclub-singer Eden Lane (Payton) and she is convicted of the crime. On the way to prison, Eden sees a man through the train window, identifying him as the murderer. Patrick and Eden jump from the train to search for the man. If the murderer isn't found, Eden will head off to jail.
