Details.
Wiki.
Lonely Road is a 1936 British crime drama film directed by James Flood and starring Clive Brook, Victoria Hopper, Nora Swinburne and Malcolm Keen. It was shot at Ealing Studios in London. The film's sets were designed by the art director Holmes Paul. The film was released in the United States as Scotland Yard Commands.
The film was based on the 1932 novel Lonely Road by Nevil Shute, who had visualised the chief character as the actor Clive Brook and had sent a copy of the novel to Brook. Shute visited the studio, and was pleased to see the film made (though the payment for film rights was not large by American standards).
