Howard Hughes visited the set one day, landing his amphibious plane near the beach where they were filming. Hughes said he stopped by to say hello to his good friend Cary Grant but in actuality he wanted to meet Katharine Hepburn, with whom he was fascinated. The film The Aviator (2004) recreates this first meeting of theirs.

After a disastrous preview, director George Cukor and Katharine Hepburn went to RKO producer Pandro S. Berman's home and offered their services for free for another film. Berman, who was furious at the quality of the movie, replied tersely, "Don't bother, please."

Despite the poor reviews of the movie, most critics noted the performance of Cary Grant. It has since been recognized as one of Grant's break-out performances.

This film is noted as being one of the biggest box office flops of the 1930's, resulting in a loss of $363,000 ($6.5M in 2017) for RKO according to studio records.

After a disastrous preview, director George Cukor introduced the Marseille scene as an introduction to the original film, thus showing the feminine Sylvia Scarlett, with tresses and in a skirt, before showing the tom-boyish side of the character.
