The Man Called Back (1932)
Directed by Robert Florey
Overview
Fresh from his success with the moody melodrama Murders in the Rue Morgue, director Robert Florey dashed off The Man Called Back at bargain-basement Tiffany Studios. The film is set in the tropics; Conrad Nagel tops the cast as a dissipated, derelict doctor, hopelessly in love with married socialite Doris Kenyon. Doris’ insane husband John Halliday commits suicide, but arranges the evidence so that his wife will be charged with murder.
Length 75 minutes
