Clark Gable was anxious to do the film because his father had been an oil rigger, and Gable himself had worked on oil rigs in Oklahoma before becoming an actor.
This was the last of three films (after San Francisco (1936) and Test Pilot (1938)) that Clark Gable and Spencer Tracy did together. After this film, Tracy insisted on a clause in his MGM contract that he would receive equal billing with Gable in all future films. While the two remained lifelong friends, they were never again paired together in a movie because MGM wasn't sure how to handle the equal billing.
The only reteaming of Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert after their Oscar winning performances in It Happened One Night (1934).
The only film in which Claudette Colbert and Spencer Tracy appeared together.
Rita Hayworth did a screen test for the role of Karen Vanmeer.
"Big John McMasters: I'm not blaming you, maybe. But you aren't walking out with him or anybody else, understand? Elizabeth Bartlett McMasters: Him? What are you...? Big John McMasters: Sand.

Elizabeth Bartlett McMasters: I'm your girl. You can lick me if it'll help. Big John McMasters: Well, I'll save it for when you need it."
"Big John McMasters: [walking up the saloon stairs to wash up] Hey, Whitey, I'll be back down like a spring breeze. Don't let those apes steal all your peaanuts. Whitey: They say that with diamonds where I come from. Big John McMasters: Yes, sir, Whitey, a brass band in a bathtub. [she laughs]"
