Production
William Le Baron of Paramount asked Norman Krasna if he could come up with a vehicle for George Raft. Krasna agreed provided he was allowed to direct. Then Carole Lombard read the script and wanted to be involved; Paramount did not want first-time director Krasna to be entrusted with a Lombard-Raft film and tried to force him off the project.[1]
Richard Wallace was meant to direct but Sylvia Sidney succeeded in having him replaced by Fritz Lang.[2]
Reception
The film was a box office flop.[2]
