Wissenswertes

Where Sinners Meet is a 1934 American pre-Code romantic comedy film directed by J. Walter Ruben and starring Diana Wynyard, Clive Brook and Billie Burke. It was adapted by writer Henry William Hanemann from Clara Beranger's 1927 movie The Little Adventuress, which in turn was a rewrite from the 1921 British play The Dover Road by A. A. Milne. The film used The Dover Road as a working title prior to its release.

Production

Producer David Lewis said the film was made to fulfil a commitment to Clive Brooks. RKO needed a project for him and Lews suggested The Dover Road, the rights for which were held by Paramount. Paramount were happy to give them to RKO.

Lewis wrote, "I knew I could make a respectable film of" the play. "It was witty, beautifully written, sophisticated. Predictably, [Padro S] Berman didn’t like it much, but he essentially had a gun at his head. It was placed into production very quickly and made very cheaply, and for my money it was a funny play that made a very amusing movie."
