Naked Alibi is a 1954 black-and-white film starring Sterling Hayden. Portions of the film, considered film noir, were shot in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico.
[edit] Plot
Police chief Joe Conroy (Hayden) is relieved of his police duties after he accuses a "respected community man" Al Willis (Barry) of murdering a group of police officers. Despite his lack of authority, Conroy puts so much heat on Willis that the latter skips town with his floozy lady friend Marianna (Grahame). Conroy tails Willis and his girlfriend to a Mexican border in an attempt to nab his man. The cat-and-mouse game ends with a rooftop-chase climax.
