Without Honor is a 1949 American film noir directed by Irving Pichel and starring Bruce Bennett, Laraine Day, Dane Clark, Agnes Moorehead, and Franchot Tone.
[1] Jane, a housewife, is confronted during her daily chores by Dennis, her married lover with whom she has had a long affair.
She threatens suicide, but when she picks up a shish kabob skewer, the two struggle and Dennis is stabbed in the chest and collapses.
Arthur Lions notes in Death on the Cheap: The Lost B Movies of Film Noir, "A top-notch cast is wasted in a total clunker.
Leading man Tone, after his brief initial appearance, spends most of the picture as the "corpse" in the laundry room.
