    • Trivia
      The final feature film for superstar Claudette Colbert. Her previous film was Texas Lady (1955) and she would not appear again on any screen, large or small, until the mini-series The Two Mrs. Grenvilles (1987).
    • Goofs
      The submarine shown in stock footage was not the USS Nautilus (SSN-571). It was the USS Skate (SSN-578). The Skate was the second sub to reach the North Pole after the Nautilus accomplished this historic feat the previous week. The Nautilus is seen at the sub base, where as of 2018 she remains as part of the Submarine Force Library and Museum, being the world's first nuclear-powered submarine.

    A beautiful film !
    Connie Stevens in her hayday with her old nose and delightful presence.A charmer as Lucy the bad girl with the heart of gold. Diane Mc Bain stunningly beautiful and a gifted actress at her best. Claudette Colbert utterly elegant,charming and a great performance as the single Mother. Dean Jagger strong but sensitive in his portrayal. Karl Malden the epitome of an actor doing his craft. Troy Donahue was so-so.Not a good actor but looking good at this point in time.Warren Beatty would have been perfect in this role as Parrish. Max Steiner the musical genius of this film.The music was captivating and gave the story that extra specialness.The film score was four stars here.
