    • Trivia
      Actor Dennis Holmes, who played Susan Hayward's son in the film, told Barbara Nichols' biographer that Susan Hayward refused to speak to him either before or after a take. She would only talk to him when they were shooting a scene. Marsha Hunt said Hayward did the same thing to her during the filming of "Smash-Up: The Story of a Woman" in 1947.
