Ethel Lina White wrote 'The Wheel Spins' in 1936, which became
The Lady Vanishes, and before that 'Some Must Watch' (1933) which Mel Dinelli adapted into this. Dorothy Macguire can't speak, doctor Kent Smith loves her, patient Ethel Barrymore wants to protect her, employer George Brent and his brother Gordon Oliver fight about it, Rhonda Fleming gets bumped off.
With Elsa Lanchester as a tippling housekeeper, Rhys Williams, Sara Allgood , James Bell.
Shot by Nick Musuraca, scored by Roy Webb, produced by Dore Schary in his brief time at RKO before returning to MGM.
Actually found Barrymore's performance the creepiest thing in the film!
