The Ringer
After the success of the Wallace film, Der Zinker (The Squeaker), made with Martin Frič and produced by his own Berlin company, Ondra-Lamac-Film, Karel Lamač immediately began to work on an adaptation of another novel by Edgar Wallace, the uncrowned king of pulp crime stories. As critics said, the result was “a movie full of suspense and surprises, thrilling from the first to the very last frame”.
