Line 42: ==Critical reception== The staff at ''[[Variety (magazine)\|Variety]]'' magazine liked the film and wrote, "''Hangover Square'' is eerie murder melodrama of the London gaslight era - typical of Patrick Hamilton yarns, of which this is another. And it doesn't make any pretense at mystery. The madman-murderer is known from the first reel...Production is grade A, and so is the direction by John Brahm, with particular bows to the music score by Bernard Herrmann."<ref>[http://www.variety.com/review/VE1117791476.html?categoryid=31&cs=1&p=0 ''Variety].
