Filmed before, but released after Ruth Roman's fateful trip aboard the luxury liner, Andrea Doria. The ship collided with another and sank on July 26, 1956. Miss Roman and her young son were among the survivors. During their rescue, they became separated and she arrived in New York before her son did. She was hounded by the press and paparazzi while she waited for her son's ship to arrived at the dock.

The opening scene of the car being towed replicates the one in Billy Wilder's A Montanha dos 7 Abutres (1951). Writer-director Henry Kesler acknowledged the hat-tip by naming the place "Wilder's Garage."

The motel owner {Harry Hines} was in another Ruth Roman film, Pacto Sinistro (1951). He was the amusement park employee who crawled under the out-of-control merry go round and, quite catastrophically, stopped it. Hines performed the stunt without a stand-in or special effects.

Ann's 1956 Lincoln Premier convertible had a MSRP of $4,747 ($54,700 in 2024). Only 2,447 were made. An example in excellent condition in 2024 could be worth $70,000 or more.

The story upon which this film is based, "The Steel Mirror" by Donald Hamilton was serialized in The Saturday Evening Post from 21 August to 9 October 1948.
