This movie was one of four that Ben Hecht and Charles MacArthur directed and wrote between 1934 and 1936. They found far greater success as a screenwriting team, and wrote many great classics! Also note that this was an incredibly depressing and mystical film noir (with a framing device about the "Three Furies"), implying that all people are basically bad. The noted pulp novelist Jim Thompson borrowed many elements from the plot of this movie for his novel, "The Killer Inside Me". NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
