Wissenswertes
In the movie, the newspaper account lists Jascha Heifetz's stolen violin as a Stradivarius. Heifetz used a Guarnarius in the picture and favored that violin in real life, but the producers felt that the name of Stradivarius would be more recognizable.

Patzer
The movie was spliced together from many takes, so there are numerous continuity holes, especially during the performaces.

Soundtracks
Andante cantabile
from "String Quartet No.1 in D, Op.11" (1871) (uncredited)
Written by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky
In the score during the opening credits
Reprised a bit by Gene Reynolds (violin)

Another uncredited and unmentioned cast member?

I caught a clip of this film with Heifetz's performance of Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto on YouTube - which was phenomenal. Watching the performance from the wings with Andrea Leeds was an actor who looks exactly like Frank McHugh (with mustache), but there's no mention of him in the cast, or of this appearance on his biography page. I assume he was an extra even though he was rather prominent in this single(?), non-speaking appearance in the film. Can anyone confirm if it was him, one way or the other?

Does anyone know if this movie is available on VHS or DVD? I remember seeing it, I believe, on TV, but I'm not certain as to whether I watched a clip of it in a documentary biography of Heifetz, or saw the film, itself.
