Richard Mason is slightly hurt in a car accident but pretends that his injuries are worse so that he cannot accompany his wife, Kathryn on a trip to the mountains. He does, however, kill her on a lonely mountain road. Or did he? He smells her perfume, finds her jewelry, sees an envelope addressed in her handwriting. He goes back to the scene of the crime to find ... what?

Did You Know?
| Trivia | Humphrey Bogart initially refused the film and was adamant that appearing in such a mediocre project would damage his career. He also claimed to be greatly insulted that he should be assigned to it. Studio head Jack L. Warner threatened him with suspension, and made several personal entreaties to the actor, claiming that his participation would be vital to the well-being of the studio. He seems to worn the actor down eventually. Production was delayed nearly six weeks until Bogart relented. See more » |
| Goofs | Both the pawn ticket and the pawnbroker give the date of receipt of the locket as 7/9. But the log book shows the date as 8/22. See more » |

| Quotes |
Kathryn Mason:
Really, Dick, you might put your things away, just look at that bed. If I've told you once, I've told you... Richard Mason: Thousand times. Kathryn Mason: And you insist on doing it. Richard Mason: Listen Kathryn, I don't insist on anything. I don't know what's come over you lately. You find fault in everything I do and everything I say. What's the matter with you? Kathryn Mason: Don't stand there and play the innocent with me. You know perfectly well what the matter is. Richard Mason: What're you talking about? Kathryn Mason: Your ridiculous infatuation with Evelyn. Oh you thought I didn't know, didn't you? You must think I'm blind. The way you look at her and hang on her every word is positively nauseating. See more » |
