According to Michael Wilding's autobiography "The Wilding Way", on one occasion while he and Ingrid Bergman were in the middle of a passionate love scene, director Alfred Hitchcock let out a howl of pain, then in the most gentle tone said "Please move the camera a little to the right. You have just run over my foot." The x-ray revealed later that the camera's weight had broken Hitchcock's big toe.
Alfred Hitchcock began to use the "ten minute take" of continuous one-reel shooting which he had enjoyed refining on Rope (1948), but as the process proved to be far more difficult here than in the enclosed apartment-set drama, only a couple of sequences were ultimately shot that way.
Alfred Hitchcock was not surprised by the critical and box-office failure of this movie, freely admitting that it was an ego-driven project made only because Ingrid Bergman was, at the time, the biggest movie draw in America and available.
In 1958, Cahiers du Cinema (French Film Magazine) voted this movie as one of the ten greatest movies of all time.
This was Alfred Hitchcock's third movie in a row that failed at the box office. His previous box-office failures were The Paradine Case (1947) and Rope (1948). His next movie, Stage Fright (1950), was also a box-office failure.
"[last lines] Winter: We'll be sorry to lose you, sir. Hon. Charles Adare: If I may say so, Winter, I'm sorry to go. Not a bad place. It is said that there is some future for it, there must be- it's a big country. Winter: Then why are you leaving, sir? Hon. Charles Adare: That's just it, Winter. It's not quite big enough. Bye, good luck."
"The Governor: [referring to the crowd's reaction to his speech] Not a very warm welcome. Hon. Charles Adare: The climate's making up for that."
