Anecdotes
The only known print of this film was destroyed in a fire in June of 2008, leaving only a few very low-quality--basically unwatchable--prints in the public domain. Eddie Muller, host of Turner Classic's "Noir Alley", did a bit of detective work and found a 35mm print at the British Film Institute. He had it shipped to UCLA Film and Television Archive where, with financial help from Muller's own organization, the Film Noir Foundation and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's Charitable Trust, the film was preserved for future generations. This is one of Muller's favorite noir films for a number of reasons, including the pairing of two great actors, Ann Sheridan and Dennis O'Keefe , who he claimed improvised some of their dialogue, but mostly because of its use of San Francisco, Eddie's home town, while it was still a bustling, growing, blue-collar seaport.

Gaffes
Later in the movie Mrs. Johnson, Danny, and a police officer (in that order) climb into the back seat of a car and are driven to police headquarters. When they arrive, they get get out in a completely different order. They would have had to climb over each other to get out of the car they way they did.

The Best Noir Film You've Never Seen

Shown for theatrically for the first time in 40 years at the 2003 San Francisco Noir Festival, this rediscovered gem has some of

the classic elements that make the genre so appealing; here an innocent bystander to a murder is on the run with a wife who is

desperately trying to find him before the cops or the killer can get to him.

A wisecracking Ann Sheridan careens around San Francisco with reporter Dennis OÕKeefe who may or may not be an ally.

One of the delights of this film is that the city is portrayed realistically with picturesque 1950 settings in North Beach,

Chinatown, Telegraph Hill and the long gone Playland at the Beach.

One interesting bit of trivia: Norman Foster later ditched the noir formula and became a successful director of Disney hits such as Zorro and Davy Crockett and eventually went on to direct episodes of the Batman and Green Hornet television series..
