Curiosidades

Verboten! is a 1959 American romantic war drama film written, produced, and directed by Samuel Fuller and starring James Best, Susan Cummings, Tom Pittman, and Harold Daye. It was the last film of the influential but troubled RKO Radio Pictures studio, which co-produced it with Fuller's own Globe Enterprises. It was filmed at the RKO Forty Acres backlot. Distribution was handled by Columbia Pictures.

Production

In January 1950, the Los Angeles Times reported that the film would be made on location in Germany by Solar Productions, a newly formed company consisting of Dane Clark, Sam Fuller, and James Wong Howe; Clark would star, Fuller would write and direct, and Howe would shoot it (Howe and Fuller had just made Baron of Arizona together). However Fuller went on to make two Korean War movies for 20th Century Fox instead.

However the movie was not made for a number of years. In 1954, the Los Angeles Times reported that Terry Moore wanted to star in the film for Fuller with Howard Hughes to produce. In September 1957, Hedda Hopper announced Fuller would make the film for RKO.

One of the cast, Tom Pittman, died in a car crash in November 1958.
