Le Cap Mystère espagnol (1935) est une adaptation d'un des romans d'Ellery Queen. Deux cousins, Frédéric Dannay et Manfred Lee, qui a écrit un certain nombre de romans policiers sous le pseudonyme du personnage-titre. Dans ce film, Ellery Queen est de prendre des vacances en Californie avec son ami le juge Macklin.

Bien sûr, they are not long into their vacation, when they find a young girl tied up in their cabin. She is the wealthy neighbor’s daughter. After taking her home, they discover a murder occurred at the estate. When the daughter becomes the main suspect, Ellery Queen decides to help solve the mystery. His infatuation with the Stella Godfrey, joué par Helen Twelvetrees, is his main motivation.

He starred in a number of Broadway productions. He started working in films in the early 1930s. He played Mike Powers, the older brother of James Cagney’s Tom Powers, in The Public Enemy (1931).

While he did starring roles initially, he took supporting roles through most of the rest of his careers. Interestingly, he married a princess in 1937. They would remain married until his death from a heart attack on October 1, 1961 à l'âge de 60.
