Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Belita was a British Olympic figure skater turned actress; this was one of her rare dramatic leads outside ice-skating musicals.
Jack Bernhard directed several B-noirs in the late 1940s, specializing in tight, cynical thrillers that studios dumped as second features but now fetch cult status.
