J.H. Wallis's 1942 book, Once Off Guard and its film adaptation, Fritz Lang's Woman in the Window (1944), have significant differences.
The book: Richard Wanley stares at the portrait in the window when he notices that a woman is standing next to him. For a moment he believes the woman is the same one in the painting. But he quickly realizes this is not true. The woman on the street is older and clearly less innocent. The film: The woman standing next to him proves to be the subject of the portrait as well.
The book: Wanley immediately recognizes the famous Claude Mazard the moment he comes charging into the room. The film: Wanley slowly realizes who the wealthy businessman is--and only after he murders him and disposes of the body.
