About The Girl in the Case
William Warner is a lawyer who is famous for his skill at opening any kind of lock, making him a valuable commodity. William is unknowingly enlisted by German spies who want him to open a chest containing a secret formula. This leads to a madcap adventure involving spies, the police and lots of picked locks!
Directed by William Berke, The Girl in the Case leans on a strong ensemble — Edmund Lowe, Janis Carter, Robert B. Williams — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about mystery titles of 1944.
