I read a story, that screenwriter T.E.B. Clarke found Roy Horniman's novel in a cheap bin outside an Antique Books store, liked the title, bought it and read it, took it to Ealing and presented it as a possible story that could be made into a movie, though not directly to Michael Balcon, but somebody else.
T.E.B. Clarke wasn't involved in the actual film itself.
I wish I could remember were I read it, so I could put in a reference. It was in a book and not on the net, that I know.
