This film is one of over 200 titles in the list of independent feature films made available for television presentation by Advance Television Pictures announced in Motion Picture Herald 4 April 1942. At this time, television broadcasting was in its infancy, almost totally curtailed by the advent of World War II, and would not continue to develop until 1945-1946. Because of poor documentation (feature films were often not identified by title in conventional sources) no record has yet been found of its initial television broadcast. Retitled "Murder on the High Seas" in 1949, its initial telecast in Los Angeles took place Monday 20 November 1950 on KLAC (Channel 13).
Ocean liner footage during the Bon Voyage scene features the White Star liner Majestic. Built as Hamburg America's Bismarck immediately prior to WWI, she was awarded to White Star as replacement for the loss of Titanic's sister ship, the Britannic. She sailed as the Majestic from 1922 -1937, through the merger with Cunard. She served as a military training ship, the Caledonia, before being sunk in 1943.
