Added DiffLines:

* CareerResurrection: The film revived the faltered career of Ida Lupino, whose Hollywood roles were dwindling. It was in fact a radio performance on Orson Welles' "Mercury Theatre of the Air" that brought her to the attention of a Fox casting agent, who was impressed with her clear voice and mid-Atlantic delivery.
* WorkingTitle: ''Sherlock Holmes''.
