Detective stories are popular and overwhelming even at the ear of the nineteen-forties, detective stories were considered old news every story that could be told was and everything ever done has been done. Why Sherlock Holmes has
solved a great deal of the world's Mysteries already by 1927.
Over the years detective storys have evolved into many gimmicks. In particularly with this film the gimmick being that of a blind detective with the help of a seeing eye dog to winch he helps in his investigations, ironically by the name of Friday which is of an interest to me as Dragnet 'with main protagonist Joe Friday' won't exist for another few years (at least to my knowledge)
Notable examples of more ridiculous detective stories would be "Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar" in which the detective works for an insurance agency or you can look to "The Saint" which stars Vincent Price.
In truth it's not too amazing a film it has Edward Arnold in it and he does a phenomenal job. he also played Nero Wolfe in a movie once, but I have not been able to find it. There's also a canine dog if you like dogs you should enjoy this movie.
I swear the dogs solves more of the crime than the actual detective did
