Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis is the film that got G.W. Pabst to hire Louise Brooks to play Lulu in Pandora's Box (1929).
- GoofsSpike Madden consults his little black addresses book at each port, and we see close-ups of the pages with names, addresses and notes. When he crosses out Maria Buenjolla's name, the page is as large as his pencil-holding hand, out of proportion to the pocket book seen earlier. By WesternOne.
- Quotes
Spike Madden: I remember! This is the place - and she's got a figure like an eel!
- Alternate versionsThe more complete version known today runs under 79 minutes, yet it lacks scenes with actresses that were named as part of 10 girls in different ports, in Fox's promotional flyer, some of whom were worth mention, by name or character, from viewers and reviewers in different countries. This may be the result of censorship, that changed the name of Madden's rival in love, from Salami to Bill - as Spike and Salami made it too obvious of a sexual innuendo. There is even a shorter version, possibly from the TCM archives, being shown in film festivals that runs under 64 minutes.

Featured review
A Girl in Every Port review
Victor McLaglen and Robert Armstrong become best buddies after trying to beat the brains out of one another in this solid but unremarkable comedy from Howard Hawks. The delectable Louise Brooks is the scheming woman who threatens to come between them. Pabst hired Brooks for Pandora's Box and Diary of a Lost Girl after seeing her in this movie, and got so much more from her than Hawks does here.
