The Falcon in Hollywood is a 1944 film which was the tenth of sixteen in the Falcon series.

Plot summary

Tom Lawrence (Tom Conway), The Falcon, tries to solve a series of Hollywood murders. The killings all seem to be tied in with a "jinxed" movie production, supervised by neurotic studio executive Martin Dwyer (John Abbott). Accompanied by wisecracked lady cabbie Billie (Veda Ann Borg), Lawrence pokes around a studio. Suspects are starlet Peggy Callahan (Barbara Hale), haughty prima donna Lili D'Alio (Rita Corday) or shady "businessman" Louie (Sheldon Leonard).[2]
