Editing John Dickson Carr (section)

==Film and television==
Carr's works were the basis for several movies, including ''[[The Man with a Cloak|The Man With a Cloak]]'' (1951) and ''[[Dangerous Crossing]]'' (1953).  ''[[The Emperor's Snuffbox]]'' was filmed as ''[[That Woman Opposite]]'' (1957), and ''[[The Burning Court (film)|La Chambre Ardente]]'' (1962) was a loose adaptation of ''[[The Burning Court]]''.

Various Carr stories formed the basis for episodes of television series, particularly those without recurring characters such as ''[[General Motors Presents]]''.  Starting in 1954 the television series [[Colonel March of Scotland Yard]], featuring [[Boris Karloff]] as Colonel March, based on Carr's character and his stories, and was broadcast in the US for 26 episodes. It premiered in the UK the following year.
