Quiz
The title was changed to "Personal Column" midway through the original U.S. theatrical release because staff at the Production Code Administration thought the word "lured" sounded too much like "lurid". Director Douglas Sirk felt the title change confused potential audiences and led to the film's box-office failure.

Blooper
Sandra, a taxi dancer, is enlisted by Scotland Yard to help catch the killer. Within a short period of time, she is appointed to be a detective and she is issued a gun. This all happens without an interview or any training. At Scotland Yard, firearms are only issued to senior officers, and most certainly not to a recruited civilian such as Sandra.

Citazioni
Sandra Carpenter: What is it tonight? A sweepstakes for zombies? I hope you two will be very happy.

Lured (1947) ***

An interesting curio for Lucille Ball fans as well as those who enjoy old horror and mystery films. This one is worth seeing for its cast alone, featuring (in addition to Ms. Ball): Boris Karloff, Sir Cecric Hardwicke, Alan Napier, George Zucco and George Sanders! This solid mystery/thriller stars Lucille Ball in a dramatic part before she became Lucy Ricardo. She plays a feisty American gal in England who is hired by Scotland Yard to go undercover to trap a serial killer who claimed one of her friends. Boris Karloff's role is a small one but it's absolutely wonderful, and it's an essential watch for the actors' legion of fans. George Zucco is a cop who keeps an eye out for Ball to make sure she doesn't get into too much trouble. *** out of ****
