Trivia
Apparently when filmed in early 1953 the aspect ratio was intended as 1.37. Then there is evidence, in a dvdtalk.com review, that it was released as a "Panoramic Screen" film in 1.66:1 format. 1953 was the year that widescreen started, and 1.66 was the basic shape of Paramount's VistaVision.
Quotes
Honey Talk:
Every dog has his day, but the nights are mine.
Goofs
Even though the story is supposedly taking place in the early 1930s, before the repeal of prohibition (1933), all the automobiles are of the late 1930s/early 1940s variety. All the women's hair styles and fashions are from 1953.
