Just a WAG, but is that Clara Bow?

...Bankhead, of course, was Bankhead...
I'm guessing it was one of the early versions of The Maltese Falcon, perhaps Satan Met a Lady, so the characters should be Joel Cairo, Sam Spade, Wilmar the gunsel, and Caspar Gutman. The actor third from the left is, I think Dwight ("Renfield") Frye.Movie?
Actors?
Gold if you can name the characters in this scene?

Hint:
The remake ten years later is 1000 percent better!
(IMO)

The fellow playing Spade had a Hispanic name, I think. He looks something like the way Hammett described Spade.
My first thought is Virna Lisi, though I've seen her only as a blonde. Same for Anita Ekberg. And I'm pretty sure it isn't Luciana Paluzzi of Thunderball and To Trap a Spy fame. So -- no idea, though she does look *faintly* familiar.
I know the movie, but I don't know her name so I won't ruin it for somebody who does know both.

Speed and accuracy - well done. And the movie?
