Wissenswertes
According to Robert Osborne, the script was submitted to the Production Code office for review in 1934 and it was rejected on the grounds that the film could teach people how to commit arson. The studio turned for help to an insurance company and the Los Angeles fire department. Both wrote letters to the Code office challenging the ruling. In a rare instance for the day, their decision was reversed.

Grand exit

A Stumped insurance company is forced to re-hire the most expensive, most big-headed, but best arson investigator to solve a string of major losses.

Edmund Lowe plays his usual dapper character who is smart but also a bit smug and a know-it-all. However, he has a bit charm with it. It's a steadily moving mystery thriller centred around a pyromaniac, and despite the fiery subject, it is not too serious, and has a mix of romance and comedy as well as mystery. The dialogue is snappy with nice witty comebacks. Ann Southern also stars as Lowe's romantic interest and is a suspect due to her turning up at every arson.
