- TriviaThis film's earliest-documented telecast took place in New York City on 6/14/50 on WATV (Channel 13).
- GoofsWhen Hadley enters Wendell's antique shop to ask about the statuette in the window, Wendell says it is being held for a client. Wouldn't it be kept away from the general stock? But Hadley seems oddly satisfied with this poor and unconvincing lie.
Featured review
Sometimes you just can't retire. We know this guy will never settle in peacefully. The plot is simplistic but it does carry us along and there is quite a good villain, even though he acts rather stupidly at times. As a matter of fact, he is so careless, it's a wonder he wasn't caught numerous times. Also, we have the carelessness of protagonist, who sees but doesn't see. We really ought to be protecting, even if we don't know where the danger lies (sort of like the guys in the Lugosi Dracula leaving the scene of a potential tack on the heroine and dinging around). There is some pretty good stock footage here, lots of fires, and a plot that, though predictable, works OK. Take a look at it if you have a chance.
