      That does shine some light on the film that we would not have known - that is to say, in addition to knowing (of course) that all those involved were earning their living and being paid.
      In spite of _____________ [whatever kinds of personal challenges that can be quite heavy], art can be created. I read that in later life, Jack Benny would be backstage before his appearance in some live show, altogether withdrawn and turned inward, looking very much like some old person in semi-hibernation...but when he went on stage, he was cruising easily and at full speed. He did his best, and he was one of the very best!

    One thing about these Crime Doctor movies, you have to pay attention to every scene, or you will miss something. With many movies, you can go wandering around the house, come back, & tho' you missed a minute or two, you still know what is going on. I've watched several of these, and if I turn my head for a few seconds, I miss something and have to rewind.

      Film, like photography, is the interplay between light and shadow, so black and white is, indeed, the natural medium for film; and, for a low-budget film like this one, color would have made little to no difference (almost certainly it was never a consideration for the producers anyway). In fact color would have harmed the film.

      Film noir and B&W go together like peanut butter and jelly. The lighting used in B&W flicks to set the tone, auch as a man striking a match lighting his cigarette just partially illuminating his face on a glistening wet darkened nighttime city street can't be emulated in color. B&W creates the ambience for these movies and old TV shows. I prefer to watch them in B&W for that reason.
      When I see classics that are offered in computer generated colorization it literally makes me cringe! And I don't "cringe" very easy at all.

      Came across these a few years back. The 1949 'Crime Doctor's Diary' is entertaining because of the role Whit Bissell plays in it. Also, it's educational in that it was the first time I was aware of an alternative to a juke box, which was music that was requested through the telephone line, to a service. It was dispensed through a stationary machine at the business, and the requested deposited coins to pay, like a juke box.

    This is a very good B-movie series. The crew who put together the overall feel found a good balance of elements, knew it, and did a pretty good job of maintaining it. It seems like music by a very good composer, able of writing in a variety of styles but is always known by certain characteristic touches - that seems to be the case with 'The Crime Dr.'
    Maybe those touches went a bit too far with Dr. Ordway entering the basement via a window at street level at night - this makes three movies where he's done that. Well, I guess when your a crime sleuth, that's common. These are much fun - thank you for posting them!

      If you watch enough of these Crime Doctor films you will notice that the cops are almost never the same actors from 1 movie to the next. I haven't paid close enough attention to notice if the character names are the same, but the actors are different. Or if the characters, and therefore the actors are different.
      And unless I am mistaken, Doctor Ordway changes receptionists as often as some doctors change their shirts. The receptionist changes with every picture.

    So now we know, where from came the phraze in "The Nanny" (1993): "One sister has split personlaity, another - no personality!" The authors have obviously borrowed it from the ending of "Crime doctor's man hunt": "What a case! Phillip had a memory loss, and Iris - split pesonality!" "You should see my wife!" "Does she have split personality?" "No,- she has no personality!"

    I myself take umbrance at the comment that these films be rated as “B movies.. they are every bit as good if not better than the “A” bits of their time. The plots are artistic, well planned and intriguing. The actors more than suited to their roles and deserving of more accolades than they received. Thank you so much for sharing these films! And anyone who I have given a “heads up” to are missing a great view if not watched. B&W fan forever.

      Born in 1887, so old for quite a while before he died at 79 - surprising he lived so long, as he was a severe alcoholic. Had a very good singing voice. He said if TV died (like silent movies and to some extent radio, probably), he'd become a bartender.

      @Teucer Russell I've heard and read that several times over the years. I guess making Ethel more frumpy ALSO fit better as someone who would marry Fred Mertz. A slim beautiful blonde plus Mertz doesn't add up in TV shows, unless he's rich. 🤷‍♀️

    I wonder , when editing this film, it was decided that (to cut the length down ) the bit where Ordway was discovered in the house and taken back to his place .When he re enters the Police station office , he runs his hand over the back of his neck and head .
