Jail Bait is Wood's version of a Dragnet episode, showing how boring he can be when he doesn't include fantastical elements (but still of interest because it was one of those I'd never seen and for a particularly gratuitous minstrel show in blackface).
Having miss- guessed a couple of twists lately (notably 'No Man's Woman') I'm afraid I'm going to say i saw this one coming well in advance.
(But I don't think I should get much credit for that.. it is rather obvious)
I never thought i'd find an ed wood in a Noir list.. but having seen this I see why...

What was up with that minstrel show? I thought blackface was long gone way before 1954.Otherwise, this is pretty typical Ed Wood. Poor plotting, bad dialogue, terrible acting, two for a nickel production values.
