Alfred Hitchcock's original cameo was cut by order of the censors. He and his secretary played deaf pedestrians. When Hitchcock's character made an apparently indecent proposal to her in sign language, she slapped his face. A more conventional cameo in front of a drugstore was substituted.
The special effects crew took stills of the Statue of Liberty's upraised hand, her torch, and the ledge beneath it. These were re-created to scale on a Universal Pictures soundstage.
The set used as the ranch house of Charles Tobin (Otto Kruger) was used as the home of the Brenners for another Alfred Hitchcock movie, The Birds (1963). It originally was a leftover set from a Deanna Durbin movie shot on the Universal backlot.
The shot of the ship on its side toward the end was a shot of the ocean liner S.S. Normandie, which had caught fire and capsized at its pier in New York. The fire was an accident, not sabotage (a cutting torch set fire to some kapok life vests), though there were rumors of sabotage at the time.
In this movie, there are brief appearances by Alfred Hitchcock (Man in front of drugstore) and Robert Mitchum early in his career (Passerby on stairs in the factory).
"Barry Kane: You can't get away with this, Tobin! Even if I don't stop you, there will be others that will. A man like you can't last in a country like this. Charles Tobin: Very pretty speech - youthful, passionate, idealistic. You see I've already sent for the police. Barry Kane: You can't bluff me. You're hooked and you know it. Charles Tobin: Must I remind you that *you* are the fugitive from justice and not I. I'm a promient citizen, widely respected. You are an obscure young workman, wanted for the committing of an extremely unpopular crime. Now which of us do you think the police will believe?"
"Charles Tobin: Power, yes... I want that as much as you want your job, or that girl. We all have different tastes as you can see, only I'm willing to back my tastes with the necessary force."
