Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Paramount rushed this out to capitalize on the still-unsolved 1937 Dorothy Bronson kidnapping case, changing enough details to avoid lawsuits. Real subtle, guys.
This was Helen Twelvetrees' penultimate film—her career collapsed as the studio system abandoned 'suffering woman' vehicles for screwball heroines. Hollywood, am I right?
