'''''The Man Called Back''''' is a 1932 American [[Pre-Code]] film directed by [[Robert Florey]].

This film was independently produced for the bargain-basement price of $68,000, partly because Florey was allowed to re-use the tropical set constructed for the [[RKO Radio Pictures]] film ''[[Bird of Paradise (1932 film)|Bird of Paradise]]'' (1932).<ref name="taves"/>
