- TriviaThis film offers a rare glimpse at a contemporary 1949 television set, a bulky table model with a ten-inch rectangular screen, which commonly was required to be "set up" by qualified technicians who also needed to install an antenna on the roof before proper reception could be achieved. Commercial television broadcasts had begun in Los Angeles two years earlier in 1947 on KTLA (Channel 5).
- GoofsJane is said to have broken a heel In the fall that caused her to miss her escape by bus, but as she picks up a broken heel off the ground and carries it with her, the heels on the shoes on both her feet remain intact and attached.
- Quotes
Jane Bandle: You make me guilty of the most disgusting thing a woman can do! No! No, I'd rather kill myself right here and now than... than believe a love I knew was good and fine is... is THIS!
Dennis Williams: Jane, don't talk like that.
Jane Bandle: I would!
[picks up knife]
Dennis Williams: Jane, stop that! Give it to me
[struggle ensues, Dennis is stabbed]
Day's acting, consisting primarily from 'reacting', is an embarrassment on the same footing as the unlikely dialogue given to the rest of the cast. Her opening scene with Clark makes for great comedy as she goes thru a 360 degree range of reactions to his 25 or so separate avenues of dialogue, mostly questions she never answers. And he's oblivious to the strangeness of her conduct. From there it only gets worse.
It's hard to believe it's the same Day who shown so brilliantly in Mr. Lucky or a movie with such confusing plot turns, but unlike The Big Sleep, where you didn't notice or care.
