This film was the fourth production in the Hildegarde Withers series, and the first and only one in which Broderick played Hildegarde Withers.
This was the third and last time Oliver portrayed astute schoolteacher Hildegarde Withers and Gleason the New York City Police Inspector Oscar Piper; the two previous films were The Penguin Pool Murder (1932) and Murder on the Blackboard (1934).
The Penguin Pool Murder (1932) is a comedy/mystery film starring Edna May Oliver as Hildegarde Withers, a witness in a murder case at the New York Aquarium, with James Gleason as the police inspector in charge of the case, who investigates with her unwanted help, and Robert Armstrong as an attorney representing Mae Clarke, the wife of the victim.
