Tallulah's
Role: Daphne Manning
Tallulah accepted
the role after the playwright read it to her, but it failed to ignite
any sparks at the box office. It was notable as a film made by Alfred
Hitchcock a year later. Tallulah was not considered for the film version
because her character was restored to her original incarnation as a
shopgirl and Hitchcock knew that Tallulah was no shopgirl.
