''Actors and Sin'' is a 1952 American black-and-white comedy drama film written, produced and directed by Ben Hecht. The film marks Edward G. Robinson's second film with actress Marsha Hunt. Also known by its section names of ''Actor's Blood'' and ''Woman of Sin'', the film debuted in New York City on May 29, 1952. Lee Garmes was co-director and cinematographer, as he was on most of the films Hecht directed. ==Plot== The film lampoons the Hollywood motion picture industry and is separated into two sections: The first section of the film is ''Actor's Blood'', a morality play about legitimate theater. The second section is ''Woman of Sin'', a send-up of Hollywood greed. ''Actor's Blood'' takes place in New York City. Broadway star Marcia Tillayou (Marsha Hunt) has been found shot dead in her apartment. Her father Maurice (Edward G. Robinson) is himself an actor, and had watched her theater career rise as his own declined. She had let success overcome her, and had thus alienated critics, fans, producers, and her playwright husband (Dan O'Herlihy). She had a few recent stage flops before being murdered. ''Woman of Sin'' takes place in Hollywood. Dishonest agent writer's agent Orlando Higgens (Eddie Albert) has been receiving frantic calls from Daisy Marcher (Jenny Hecht) about a screenplay she had written called ''Woman of Sin''. Thinking they are crank calls, Higgens tells her to never call his office again. He then learns that through a mixup of the mails, her screenplay had been received by film mogul J.B. Cobb (Alan Reed), a man who once passed on ''Gone With the Wind'' based on Higgins' advice. Cobb thinks that Higgins sent the script and offers Higgins a lucrative sum for the rights. The problem is that Higgins has no idea where Daisy is, or that she is actually a nine-year-old child.
