Trivia
This film was supposed to feature George Zucco, but the actor had a stroke on the set and was committed to a sanitarium in San Gabriel, California until his death in 1960. See more »Goofs
Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): In North Africa, Rommel asks whether any fuel has arrived. The officer replies, "Not a pint". No German would use "pint" instead of liter. See more »Quotes
