Quiz
There was a widely-held belief that a young man in a wig and period costume appearing in a scene with Kay Francis in "I Found Stella Parish" was a young Errol Flynn. This was the chained male prisoner standing to the left of an all-white-clad Kay Francis on stage as she is giving her act IV speech near play finale. As reported by Rudy Behlmer in the March 1970 issue of "Films in Review" the writer and his collaborators, Clifford McCarthy and Tony Thomas, concluded that the Flynn lookalike was actually Ralph Bushman (a.k.a. Francis X. Bushman Jr.).

Blooper
In 1 scene, both Gloria and Keith ask for a cookie. Since both were English, they really would have asked for a biscuit.

Citazioni
Stella Parish, an alias of Elsa Jeffords, aka Aunt Lumilla Evans: We Americans are a fun-loving people; we pay most anything just to look at a freak. That's what I am now--a freak--a headline. I'm hot stuff. The public will eat me up, and I'll make 'em pay for it.

Woman of mystery

Kay Francis is at the height of her screen career and in the title role of I Found Stella Parrish. She's a celebrated actress over in the United Kingdom who right after opening in a play to rave reviews suddenly vanishes.

Reporter Ian Hunter goes on the trail. Her producer Paul Lukas has billed her as a'woman of mystery so there's no real background. But with that voice, she's an American. Ian crosses the pond and on the same ship.

It's the usual story he falls for her, but the story comes first. After that it's who does she get in the end?

Also in the picture is a menacing Barton MacLane who is the source of her troubles. They had some history back in the day that Hunter painstakingly digs out. He's only on briefly, but he is scary.

Francis has some good scenes with her daughter Sybil Jason who's origins remain discreet as per The Code.

Francis runs a whole gamut of emotions in this film. One of her best performances.
