Trivia: There are 3 entries in the trivia list - like these:
- Desert location shooting was so hot at times that the film melted in the camera.
- Claude Rains at first turned down the part, feeling he would be miscast and look ridiculous as a tough New York City cop. Only after being threatened by the studio with suspension did he reluctantly accept it, but he always considered this one of his least favorite pictures.
- The play opened off-broadway in New York City, New York, USA on 4 April 1933.
