Completed in October 1948, and bears a 1948 copyright statement on the opening credits, but not released until 1950.
Features two future Best Supporting Actor Oscar winners: Edmond O'Brien and Ed Begley.
The IMDb cast list reflects the order in the original 1948 designed screen credits; however, in the 2 years before it was eventually released theatrically, the stature of the players had changed dramatically, and so the 1950 designed advertising material lists them in a much revised order: Mayo and MacRae in large type above the title, O'Brien, Clark, and Lindfors in that order, in much smaller type below the title.
Gambler Solly Blayne (Richard Rober) is shot from outside the living room window as he relaxes in his Los Angeles home, which is exactly the same way that gangster Bugsy Siegel was killed in Beverly Hills in 1947.
Lysa (Viveca Lindfors) drives a 1949 Lincoln convertible, which was already in the showrooms in late July 1948, which coincides with the dates of actual filming, in September-October 1948.
"Bob Corey: [after Quong closes his eyes] Can't you help us, doc? Can't you do something? Quong's Doctor: [after opening Quong's eyelid] I'm afraid the next time he talks it'll be to his ancestors."
"Lysa Radoff: How do you fit into the picture, Mr. Connolly? Steve Connelly: I work for Lou - new boy - sort of a handyman. Lysa Radoff: And where did he find you? Steve Connelly: A sale... war surplus... big reduction. Bonnie Willis: He's not only cute - he's funny. Steve Connelly: Part of my job. Evey hour on the hour, a joke. Lysa Radoff: Lou likes jokes. He'll like you. You're amusing, Mr. Connolly... and hard. Steve Connelly: It's a hard world."
