City of Missing Girls is a 1941 mystery-thriller film directed by Elmer Clifton, starring H.B. Warner, Astrid Allwyn, and John Archer. The film takes place in a small town where the police department is investigating the mysterious disappearances of several young women. The story follows the efforts of the town's detective to capture the kidnapper and unravel the mystery behind the missing girls.

The film begins with the sudden disappearance of a young woman named Florence Lee, who was last seen getting into a car with an unidentified man. The Town's detective, Sergeant Bill Brenner (John Archer), is put on the case, and soon discovers that several other young women have also gone missing in the town. He deduces that all the missing women were employed at a dance hall owned by a man named Jake Morris (H.B. Warner).

Brenner interviews Morris, who appears to be genuinely concerned about the missing girls, but Brenner is suspicious of his motives. Soon, Brenner discovers a clue that leads him to believe that the kidnapper might be someone else. He comes across a pawn shop where the owner recognizes a watch that belonged to one of the missing women, and he informs Brenner that a young man named Jerry McMullen (Frankie Darro) had pawned it.

Brenner begins to investigate McMullin's background and discovers that he is the son of a wealthy businessman who works for a rival company of Morris. Brenner also finds out that McMullin had been smitten with one of the missing women and may have been trying to impress her with his wealth. Brenner suspects that McMullin might have kidnapped the girls to get back at Morris, his father's rival.

As Brenner tracks down McMullin, Morris sets out to find the missing girls on his own. Eventually, Brenner and Morris meet and discover that McMullin has not just kidnapped the girls, but he also intends to kill them. The two team up to rescue the girls and take down McMullin.

City of Missing Girls is a suspenseful thriller that keeps you engaged from beginning to end. What starts as a small-town mystery soon turns into a high-stakes case with twists and turns that keep you guessing until the very end. Archer’s portrayal of Brenner is convincing and captivating, while Warner’s Morris is shrouded in mystery and keeps you guessing about his true motives right up until the end. The cinematography is typical of the noir style of filmmaking, with dark and shadowy scenes adding to the overall atmosphere of suspense.

In conclusion, City of Missing Girls is an excellent example of the mystery-thriller genre of film from the early 1940s. It is a must-watch for anyone who loves a classic whodunit with a twist. The film is full of suspense, intrigue, and mystery, with a gripping plot that keeps you guessing until the very end.
