NUMBER SEVENTEEN (1932)

Cast

Plot

Number Seventeen is essentially a detective story, a copper tracking down a gang of jewel thieves; the picture runs about an hour and is rather confusing. It starts in a spooky old house and ends with an exciting cross-country car chase, for which miniatures were used. It looks like a picture that Hitchcock had to make to fill a quota and it was the last he directed for BIP.
