In the shadows of New York's elite,
A murder mystery unfolds, discreet.
Laura Hunt, a beauty so rare,
Her face obliterated, a crime so unfair.
Detective MacPherson on the case,
Unraveling secrets, leaving no trace.
Waldo Lydecker, infatuated and sly,
Shelby Carpenter, with a deceiving eye.
Gene Tierney shines as Laura, so bright,
Dana Andrews as MacPherson, seeking the light.
Vincent Price, a suave and weak link,
Clifton Webb steals the show, in a wink.
Amidst the glamour and deceit,
David Raksin's score, oh so sweet.
A jazz-based masterpiece, timeless and true,
Elevating Laura to a cinematic view.
Preminger's triumph over studio strife,
Creating a classic, a film for life.
Laura stands tall, a gem of its time,
A must-watch for lovers of crime.
So heed the call, and watch with glee,
As Laura unfolds, for all to see.
