Filming began with Margaret Lindsay cast as Sally Keating. Lindsay left the project after her close friend Thelma Todd's mysterious death from carbon monoxide poisoning.

They keep referring to the revolver, when in fact it is a semi-automatic. (In fairness, none of the characters are gun experts and may well have been using the term generically.)

Fall From Grace

William B. Davidson is blackmailing his aristocratic family: $25,000 before the next evening or he opens the closet to show all the skeletons. There's an accident with a gun, and nurse Marguerite Churchill is brought in to see to him. He appears to be getting fine, and Miss Churchill overhears the rest of the family agreeing how to raise the cash. The next afternoon, she is sitting on the lawn, when Davidson is shot and killed, with no one to do it, and no gunshot!

It's a nice little locked-room mystery from a Mignon Eberhart story, and under B director Frank MacDonald, it comes in at precisely one hour, giving the audience little time to think out the mystery. Everyone in the household has a reason to want Davidson dead, and no one has the opportunity. Yet there he is.
