    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Based on the play "My Three Angels" by Sam Spewack and Bella Spewack, which opened on Broadway March 11, 1953 at the Morosco Theatre, where it ran for 344 performances. The roles played by Humphrey Bogart, Aldo Ray, and Peter Ustinov were originated on stage, respectively, by Walter Slezak, Darren McGavin, and Jerome Cowan. The roles portrayed by Leo G. Carroll and Joan Bennett were played by Henry Daniell and Joan Chandler.
    • Goofs
      The movie supposedly plays on Devil's Island (It's superimposed in the establishing shot at the very beginning) and Ducotel's general store is located in Cayenne (It's mentioned several times), the capital of French Guiana. However, Devil's Island exclusively was a penal colony with no civilian settlement, and Cayenne lies on the mainland coast, approximately 50 miles east of Kourou, the closest mainland town to Devil's Island.

      • Joseph: We came here to rob them and that's what we're gonna do - beat their heads in, gouge their eyes out, cut their throats. Soon as we wash the dishes.
