Curiozități

Dig That Uranium is a 1956 American comedy film directed by Edward Bernds and starring the comedy team of The Bowery Boys, with veteran supporting players Raymond Hatton and Mary Beth Hughes. The film was released on January 8, 1956, by Allied Artists and is the fortieth film in the series. It was the last of eight Bowery Boys films directed by Bernds.

Production

This film marks the last appearance of Bennie Bartlett, who left the series, and Bernard Gorcey, who was killed in a car accident on September 11, 1955. Director Edward Bernds also left the series after the filming.

Production costs kept rising during the 1950s but the budgets stayed about the same because the films were sold to the exhibitors at fixed prices, and thus could generate only so much revenue. As a result, fewer supporting actors were hired for the series, and most of those were faded names.

Much of the picture was shot at Iverson's Ranch, the location for thousands of western features and TV shows over the decades. This gave the film a small veneer of authenticity, as did the casting of veteran cowboy sidekick Hatton as a grizzled old prospector.
