Wissenswertes

Banjo is a 1947 American drama film directed by Richard Fleischer and starring Sharyn Moffett, Jacqueline White and Walter Reed.

Production

Richard Fleischer's first feature as director was another Sharyn Moffett vehicle, Child of Divorce (1946), which was a success, so he was reteamed with Moffett for Banjo. In April 1946, Lillie Hayward was assigned to write the screenplay and produce the film.

In November 1946, RKO announced that Moffett had been cast in a film titled Angel Face, also written by Hayward.

Banjo was screened for a sophisticated, college-educated preview audience in Westwood Village, near UCLA. The preview was disastrous, with audience members hissing and booing the screen. According to Fleischer, "No one escaped the disaster of Banjo unscathed. Sharyn Moffett got fired; the dog who played Banjo got fired; the producer, Lilly Hayward, got fired.
