豆知識

Conspiracy is a 1939 American spy drama film directed by Lew Landers, from a screenplay by Jerome Chodorov, based on the story, "Salute to Hate", by John McCarthy and Faith Thomas. The film stars Allan Lane, Linda Hayes, and Robert Barrat, and was produced and distributed by RKO Radio Pictures, who premiered the film in New York City on August 23, 1939, with a general release on September 1.

Production

In March 1939, RKO purchased the story, Salute to Hate by Faith Thomas. It was originally meant to star Anne Wilson and John McCarthy. In April, RKO made the decision to change the name of the film from Salute to Hate to Conspiracy. In June it was announced that Allan Lane and Linda Hayes would be headlining the picture, with Lew Landers handling the directing reins, and Cliff Reid the producing chores.

Prior to its opening, the Motion Picture Herald wrote that it would be a socially significant film, casting light on the practices of the secret police organizations in countries controlled by dictators. In August, Conspiracy was given a class A-1 rating by the National Legion of Decency, labeling it unobjectionable for general audiences.
