Screenplay by Amanda Silver, based on short story Murder Obliquely by Cornell Woolrich.
Screenplay and short story on which it was based appear in Fallen Angels: Six Noir Tales Told for Television, published by Grove Press in 1993.
This book includes screenplays for all six dramas filmed for the Fallen Angels series. Each screenplay is preceded by the short story on which it is based. One of these stories, The Frightening Frammis, was written by Jim Thompson, a favorite author of Agent Sadie Hawkins in Judas Kiss.1. Novels and short stories by Cornell Woolrich (who also wrote under the names William Irish and George Hopley) originally appeared in pulp magazines and are somewhat difficult to find. But most of them were reprinted in paperback editions by Carroll & Graf in the mid-1980s. Recently, many of the short stories have been reprinted in anthologies.
