Strictly Dishonorable is a 1951 romantic comedy film starring Ezio Pinza and Janet Leigh.

Production

Preston Sturges approached Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer with the idea remaking Strictly Dishonorable (1931) with Ezio Pinza and received $60,000 for the rights. However, Sturges was disappointed when he was not hired to write the screenplay.

Strictly Dishonorable was in production from mid-January through mid-March 1951 and was released on June 26 in several American markets.

Screen stars such as Greta Garbo, John Gilbert and Lewis Stone briefly appear in an incidental screening of the MGM film A Woman of Affairs (1928). Stone played the part of Judge Dempsey in the 1931 version of Strictly Dishonorable.

The film's operatic scenes were staged by Vladimir Rosing.
