Storyline

- TriviaIn the last scene, it can be seen how bad the Los Angeles smog was at that time. It sometimes was difficult to keep ones eyes open due to the intense stinging of the smog.
- GoofsAt 45 minutes into the movie, Connie Anderson enters the downtown L.A. subway station. She first walks into a trolley car, and the car is marked number "5000" inside the car. She then leaves that car, but now the same car is marked "5009" on the outside. Then she walks to her right and boards a different car, marked "5000" on the outside.
- Quotes
Police Lieutenant Jake Kuppol: We're all finished with you, Mr. Werker.
Mr. Werker: I thought I'd wait around for the reporters and photographers. They may want to take my picture.
Police Lieutenant Jake Kuppol: The Chronicle's down the street two blocks.
Mr. Werker: That was an awful shock you know, finding that body. I am not a well man. I fell off a roof once and all my insides got shoved up two inches. My stomach's up against my liver. My liver's up against my gall bladder. And my gall bladder's between my stomach and my lungs. Besides which I gotta bad heart. You'd think they'd want to take my picture. After all, a sick man like me finding that girl, huh?
Movie gains a lot from location photography in and around a burgeoning LA. The final scene makes effective use of that city's landmark "Hollywood" sign, the only film I know to do that. There's a fine performance from Ruth Roman as a beleaguered mother whose child is under threat of kidnap, along with an unusually restrained Crawford as the head agent, a role I suspect recommended him for for the lead in the following year's hit series Highway Patrol. Note the rather gratuitous cheesecake scenes from Roman and the bosomy Martha Hyer. After all, the movies had to do something to get people away from the novelty of their television sets. Nothing special here. Just an easy way to pass a spare 90 or so minutes.
