Trivia
This film, like Dirigible (1931), is also loosely based on the crash of the airship "Italia", flown by Umberto Nobile, around 5/25/1928, near the North Pole, and the international rescue effort that cost early polar explorer Roald Amundsen his life. The pilot who rescued Nobile also crashed when returning to rescue more survivors and had to be rescued himself.

Goofs
The news broadcast heard by Miriam Hall and her house guests announces a cable has arrived from the dirigible sent on August 4 at 4:22 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. That date was in the middle of summer and would have been during Daylight Savings Time, which in 1929 began on in April and ended in late September.

Quotes
Lt. Wallace: It was just a miracle that I found you here. I was just about ready to turn and go back to camp. Where are the others?
Tom Armstrong: Gone.
Lt. Wallace: Gone?
Tom Armstrong: We're all that's left. Commander Hall, and I'm Tom Armstrong.
