The car that Glenn Ford wins is a 1955 Lincoln Futura, the one-off concept car that ultimately became the Batmobile on Batman (1966). The car cost Ford $250,000 ($2.4M in 2022), and unlike most concept cars at the time was completely drivable. It was originally pearlescent white, but that color did not photograph well, so it was painted red for this film. The car, as the original "Batmobile", was sold at auction for $4.62M in 2013 (equivalent to about $5.63M in 2022).
This film was a success at the box office, earning MGM a profit of $582,000 ($5.7M in 2022) according to studio records.
Film debut of Gene Blakely.
As the car is pulling up to a crowd, while seeking directions to The Palace, a man on a scooter to their right tries to pass them and wipes out in the street. A couple of people move to assist him, but the hired extras continue the scene, moving in to view the car.
The splendid Roman aqueduct at Segovia is seen in the establishing shots as the car is shown being driven in Spain.
"Checkroom Girl: What happened to your girlfriend's dress? Sgt. Joe Fitzpatrick: I tore it. Checkroom Girl: Ooo, I like a man who knows what he wants."
"Sgt. Joe Fitzpatrick: Hey, Charlie, you're a married man. Charles Meriden: Well, don't rub it in. Sgt. Joe Fitzpatrick: What do you make of this? [reads letter] Sgt. Joe Fitzpatrick: Oh, Joe, I have the most wonderful surprise for you. It's too good to put in a letter, so you'll have to wait until I get there. It's the sort of thing you always knew might happen, but when it does you just can't believe it. Charles Meriden: Uh oh. Sgt. Joe Fitzpatrick: Wait a minute, there's more. I'm not going to say any more now, but honestly, Joe, it's the most wonderful surprise that ever happened to two people. Charles Meriden: Congratulations, you're going to have a baby. Sgt. Joe Fitzpatrick: That's my conclusion. Charles Meriden: "The most wonderful thing that ever happened to two people" - outside of an income tax refund, I don't know what else it could be. Hey, sour ball, don't you want to have a baby?"
