Production

Mann agreed to direct the film on the encouragement of Preston Sturges who worked with Mann on Sullivan's Travels. Sturges said Mann should direct any film he could if the opportunity came up. Mann later said of the film "I think it had some good things in it. I remember very warmly the cameraman, an oldtimer name of Spatkuhl, who had done many films for UFA and Lubitsch, and he was a great help. Nobody else cared a damn about the picture.
