When Mrs. Jacoby visits the home of Mr. Asano, the servant who answers the door and assists later is George Takei, "Mr. Sulu" of Star Trek (1966).
When Eddie's fixing Ms Jacoby's TV, rather than actually shooting the scene with material already selected, and pre-recordedto be seen on the TV's screen, they used another - less expensive trick; since TV scan rates are not the same as fillm, whenever a TV's seen (and it's actually showing something being broadcast), the dark scan lines are visible (and sometimes the TV's picture will 'roll'). As this was still early in the TV-era, showing TV's broadcasting was something of a novelty, but, it came with the afformentioned problems. To combat this, a 'TV' was actually built (or, more accurately, something which looked like a TV). What's being shown on the 'screen' is actually film, which is being projected from behind the scene, and with the aid of a mirror, and a semi-translucent material to give the illusion of a screen, the result- a high quality image is seen, and there's no problem syncing camera with TV.
The play "A Majority of One" by Leonard Spigelgass opened at the Shubert Theater in New York City on February 16, 1959, and ran for five hundred fifty-six performances. Tsuruko Kobayashi and Mae Questel recreated their stage roles in this filmed production. Leonard Spigelgass wrote the play and adapted his work for the screenplay.
Barbara Stanwyck was considered for the role of Bertha Jacoby.
Although prominently billed in credits, Sharon Hugueny was cut before its release.

"Essie Rubin: Take a walk around Nostrand Avenue and you'll see. That element is moving in. The place is full of them. Jerry Black: What element Mrs. Rubin? Essie Rubin: You know what I have reference to: colored, puerto rican... Jerry Black: Really, I seem to remember that in this very neighborhood year ago, they didn't allow Jews Essie Rubin: What does one got to do with the other? Jerry Black: Everything. Mrs. Rubin, the only way to stop prejudice is to stop it in yourself Essie Rubin: But honestly, it's not a question of prejudice, I just don't like to live with them."
