A few years after this film was made, Roman Bohnen - who plays the idealistic political scientist - fell victim to the blacklisting that poisoned Hollywood. He had been one of most active members of the leftist Group Theater (1931-1940) in New York, many of whose members belonged to the communist party.
"The Hedda Hopper Show - This Is Hollywood" broadcast a 30 minute radio adaptation of the movie on January 25, 1947 with George Raft and Sylvia Sidney reprising their film roles.
Final film of Joyce Bryant.
