Nelle tenebre della metropoli

In the book "A Heart at Fire's Center: The Life and Music of Bernard Herrmann," director John Brahm said this about the concerto scene: "For a long time, I had been dissatisfied with the photography of music in films. Musicians themselves are uninteresting; it is what they play that should be photographed. I myself could not read a note of music, but when Herrmann came and saw the finished film he could not believe it. I had photographed his music."

The title of Patrick Hamilton's novel, 'Hangover Square', is a play on words based on 'Hanover Square'. It is not meant to be Bone's actual address as it is in the film version, where a street sign marked 'Hangover Square' is seen.

Opening credits: This is the story of George Harvey Bone who resided at number 12, Hangover Square, London, S.W. in the early part of the Twentieth Century. The British Catalogue of Music lists him as a Distinguished Composer~~~
