Production

The film was based on the eponymous 1953 novel by "Frank Paley", a social worker writing under a pseudonym. The New York Times thought "Mr Paley's narrative powers are not up to his descriptive ones."

Sam Katzman bought the film rights in 1955.

The lead role was given to James Darren, who had recently been signed to a long-term contract by Columbia. It was his first movie. Katzman also introduced newcomers Laurie Carroll and Sal Anthony. Carroll was discovered by Katzman when she appeared on The Johnny Carson Show.
