Trivia
A number of character actors in this film who had been associated with communist associations and left-wing theater groups - Howard Da Silva, Martin Gabel, Jeff Corey, Leif Erickson and John Randolph - were soon to be called before the House Un-American Activities committee or listed in the anti-communist publication Red Channels. Most were blacklisted and did not appear again in films for many years; one (Erickson, who had been married to Frances Farmer) named names and was cleared.
