Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaOne of the earliest of over 700 Paramount Productions, filmed between 1929 and 1949, which were sold to MCA/Universal in 1958 for television distribution, and have been owned and controlled by MCA ever since. Because of its age, and its primitive sound recording techniques, which 1950s sponsors considered a viewing deterrent, it was only rarely taken off the shelf, but interest in the author of the original story and the still relevant members of the cast gave a few viewers, who chose to stay up for the Late, Late Show, an opportunity to take a look at it. In Lowell, Massachusetts it was aired 16 April 1960 on WBZ (Channel 4), in St. Louis 14 November 1960 on KMOX (Channel 4), in Los Angeles 3 March 1961 on KNXT (Channel 2), in Chicago 10 July 1961 on WBBM (Channel 2), in New York City 21 August 191 on WCBS (Channel 2), and in Wheeling, West Virginia, 15 November 1961 on WTRF (Channel 7).
- GoofsIn "The Greene Murder Case" (about 29 minutes in) someone mentions reading about "The Canary Murder Case". But, in "The Canary Murder Case" (about 21 minutes in) someone mentions that he hasn't seen Vance since "The Greene Murder Case". The studio may not have been sure which order the movies would be released when the dialog was written.
