Wissenswertes
In this movie, Gloria Dickson is married to a man, played by Jerome Cowan, who is habitually starting fires with carelessly discarded smoking materials. There are two scenes in the movie, including the final scene, in which he starts such fires. Her character comments, "I'm practically cremated." when describing living with him. Ironically, just two short years after this movie was released, Gloria was killed in a house fire - suspected to have been caused by a carelessly discarded cigarette.

Patzer
The suspect steals the doctor's car and drives off, no one knows where. However, the next morning, the doctor leaves his home and gets into his car, which is in its usual place.

Warner Baxter Keeps Working

Psychiatrist Warner Baxter got Lloyd Bridges a new trial, and he was found not guilty of killing his employer. He wants to get married to Lynn Merrick. Baxter recommends that he get a different job, one not for a single employer. When that employer turns up dead, Bridges is in trouble, and Baxter starts an investigation that links back to an embezzlement and disappearance forty years earlier.

After thirty years in the movies, an Academy Award, and a long string of movie appearances, Baxter was pretty much marking time in the 1940s, appearing in the Crime Doctor series for Columbia. It was based on the CBS radio show created by Max Marcin that ran from 1940 through 1947. Doctor Ordway (the role taken in the movie series by Baxter) is a psychiatrist who uses his talents to help patients and solve crime.

Baxter was in poor health in the 1940s, and would die in 1951 at the age of 62. He still gives a graceful performance in a movie with Gloria Dickson, Barton Maclane, Jerome Cowan, Reginald Denny, and Rose Hobart.
