- CuriosidadesThere were only 11 actresses in the movie, not 13. Scenes involving the remaining two, Phyllis Fraser and Betty Furness, ended up on the cutting room floor. Several other roles also were telescoped in the editing process when the film was shortened from its original 73 minutes to 59 minutes for theatrical release.
- PifiasIn the newspaper with the headline "Horoscope Murders Still Baffle Police", there are two other stories with the smaller headlines of "Air Hero Honored" and "Judge Carrol Hands Out Good Advice and Admonitions with Stiff Fines". It can be seen that the text of those stories is composed of random lines of text.
- Citas
Jo Turner: I do envy you, Laura. To me, life is just an ashtray full of cigarette butts.
Laura Stanhope: Why don't you marry again, Jo?
Jo Turner: Oh, I would if I were sure of getting a kid like Bobby.
Laura Stanhope: What about the present fiancé?
Jo Turner: Oh, he's a lot of fun. But all he wants is a well-stocked cellar, a racehorse, bridge... anything but babies. Laura, why don't you marry again sometime?
Laura Stanhope: No. I could never be dependent on anyone again. I love standing on my own feet.
Jo Turner: I wonder if any woman can.
Laura Stanhope: Why not?
Jo Turner: I say, do you remember how you were always afraid the boys would go too far, and I was afraid that they wouldn't?
- ConexionesFeatured in Arena: Hollywood Babylon (1991)
The second thing was how beautiful MYRNA LOY photographed, playing a half-caste who is determined to avenge what snobbish sorority sisters did to her in finishing school where she was exiled because she wasn't white. Loy at this stage was still playing these exotic roles, complete with slanting eye make-up--but as a woman with an hypnotic gaze she was quite convincing. C. HENRY GORDON as Yogadachi, the fake Swami, was rather hammy here--whereas five years later he was very effective as a turban-wearing Indian in CHARGE OF THE LIGHT BRIGADE.
***POSSIBLE SPOILER AHEAD***
IRENE DUNNE is the last of the sorority girls to survive and the last one to be punished by Loy. However, as suspense builds to a climax aboard a speeding train, Loy's plan fails with the police hot on her trail.
The 59 minute running time means that some fifteen minutes were cut from the original release and it shows. The ending is much too abrupt and before you know it "The End" is flashed on the screen. Someone was busy with the scissors on this one, particularly during those final moments.
Would love to see the complete film some day, but I suppose that's not going to happen if the footage hasn't been restored by now. All the performances are rather standard, including RICARDO CORTEZ as the detective who's able to solve the case. FLORENCE ELDRIDGE is almost unrecognizable as one of the women and KAY JOHNSON is a bit over the top as one of the victims who shoots herself.
Summing up: Not bad and certainly worth a watch.
