From the fecund mind of mystery/thriller writer, Edgar Wallace, best
known as the first screenwriter of the film King Kong. His better known
mystery series include the J.G. Reeder and Green Archer series.
Wallace's stories were so well accepted over 160 films were made from
them. This week I'll look at Wallace and the radio play "Criminal At
Large" from the
Molle' Mystery Theatre from April 1944. The radio play was based upon a stage play and film called
The Frightened Lady.
Music under is Deep Purple played by Art Tatum.
