I have not seen it, but the phrase "beaten to death with bronzed baby booties" sounds familiar. I have no idea what I was reading (I'd have said that you are the only person whose writing about noir I've read), but it's the kind of thing that might stick.
I should hope it was the sort of thing that didn't happen often. It is extremely memorable when it occurs here.
