"If you think you're seeing double in The Whole Town's Talking (1935), you're right. You get two Edward G. Robinsons for the price of one in this black comedy with a favorite Hollywood plot device - mistaken identity. At the opening of the film, you meet Arthur Ferguson Jones (Robinson), a timid hardware-store clerk with a crush on fellow worker Wilhelmina Clark (Jean Arthur). Without warning, he is arrested by the police who have mistaken him for his dead ringer, 'Killer' Mannion (also played by Robinson), a notorious public enemy." - TCM
