my dvr decided to cut this movie off with about 1 minute left..
Frankie was talking to the fat detective in his apartment and
the detective was explaining everything.. how he loved the chick..
what happens next? anything?

I assume they weren't so stupid as to leave out Cregars death scene but if they were he committed suicide drinking poison. Next scene is at the club where the movie opened Gable & Mature are dancing and his buddies, at the table, making some cracks about what a lucky guy he is

You mean Grable & Mature!!!

Hollywood didn't make the other kind of movie in 1941.;-)

I know it's logical to assume it was Suicide but didn't Keiger mention that an MD gave him the small bottle? Could he just have taken something to zone out temporarily (like a cocaine mix of some kind).

Kisskiss, Bangbang

I just saw the film. Cornell didn't say an MD gave it to him. He said "The guy who gave me this told me it would put me under."

I just saw the film. Cornell didn't say an MD gave it to him. He said "The guy who sold me this medicine told me it would cure everything."
Before that, Frankie: "They're going to put you away."
Cornell: "Yeah, but not where you think."
Pretty strong case for suicide, says I.
