Τον Νοέμβριο του 13, 1930, Roland V. West released The Bat Whispers (1930), the talkie version of his silent classic, Η νυχτερίδα (1926). The film follows faithfully the script of the original.

Τον Μάιο του 20, 1947, Ralph Byrd returned to the Dick Tracy franchise in Dick Tracy’s Dilemma (1947). It was welcome news for fans of the franchise although Chester Gould was a notable exception.
