    Trivia: There are 2 entries in the trivia list - like these:
    • In late August 1942, RKO decided to delay the release of the movie because critics panned it in press previews. By that time, Orson Welles contract was terminated by a new studio head. As part of the settlement, Welles agreed to recut the last reel and film additional scenes. He added the voice-over by Joseph Cotten at the beginning and end of the movie, and designed the pre-credit sequence.
    • It is widely believed that Orson Welles directed this film, or at least large portions of it. However, in "This Is Orson Welles", he states he only acted in it and the directing credit should go to Norman Foster.
