The Glass Key is the first of two film adaptations of the classic suspense novel The Glass Key by Dashiell Hammett. The film was released in 1935 starring George Raft, featuring Edward Arnold and Claire Dodd, and directed by Frank Tuttle.
The film was remade in 1942, with Alan Ladd in Raft's role, in the wake of the runaway success the previous year of the remake of Hammett's The Maltese Falcon.
