Did You Know?
| Trivia | During pre-production, freelancer Loretta Young had director approval, and very reluctantly was talked into accepting Jules Dassin. Ten days into shooting she refused to work with him any further, telling the producer to either replace her or the director. Overnight Dassin was dropped and she approved Richard Sale, who completed the film. See more » |
| Goofs | Loretta Young puts on a white underskirt from which she loses a piece of lace. Later when she takes it out of a draw to prove that it's intact it not only looks shorter but it's now pink. See more » |
