Trivia
When Edward G. Robinson says, "Revenons a nos moutons," he is using a French catch-phrase that literally means "Let's get back to the sheep" and is used to mean "Let's get back to the point at hand." The phrase comes from the French play "La Farce de Maitre Pathelin," in which a legal case about sheep keeps getting sidetracked in comical ways, and the judge has to keep saying it.

Errores
Damon says he played Rastignac in a performance of the play La Fille du Regiment. This is an opera, and there is no character of that name in it. Rastignac is a character in the novels of Balzac.

Citas

a snappy murder mystery; a filmed play

Great acting from Robinson, and a little over the top, but enjoyably so, from Calhern and Astor. Very stagey, but good setups and moving camera. Beware the plot synopsis in the TV Guide movie database. It seems to describe the ending of the play, but the movie (a censored version?), which played on TCM, has a more ambiguous ending which works better and is more interesting (to me, at least). (Not that I'm for censorship, but sometimes...) Ironically, the play had a happy ending, and that is the one described by TV Guide and Maltin. It's amusing to see when the established references contain reviews that were written by people who had not seen the entire film, and in some cases not at all.
