Short description
Richard Hanney has a rude awakening when a glamorous female spy falls into his bed - with a knife in her back. Having a bit of trouble explaining it all to Scotland Yard, he heads for the hills of Scotland to try to clear his name by locating the spy ring known as The 39 Steps.
What's left behind the scenes
- Filming took place in a studio at Lime Grove and on location in Scotland.
- The poster for the film "Young and Innocent" proclaimed it to be the successors to "The 39 Steps".
- Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll did not know each other before filming. The first scene they filmed together was when their characters, handcuffed to one another, make their escape. Hitchcock fastened them with real handcuffs and told the actors after the shoot that he had lost the key. Robert Donat and Madeleine Carroll remained handcuffed to each other for the entire day and spent it together.
- The poster for the film 'Young and Innocent' bore the caption 'successors to The 39 Steps'.
- Alfred Hitchcock's cameo is as a man walking down the street and throwing out trash.
