    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Boris Karloff: (at around 20 mins) Approaching a ticket counter as Tom (Norman Foster) takes his leave. During filming of The Mask of Fu Manchu (1932), Boris Karloff took time off to appear in this film; the camera immediately cuts away once the actor appears, so the purpose behind his cameo seems to have been deleted.
    • Goofs
      When Lynn is working late, as she leaves Tom to bring the unfinished report to Mr. Dwight, the moving shadow of the boom mic is visible on the wall by the door.
