Trivia
Warner Bros. built a full-scale Merchant Marine ship in three months, modeled after the French ship Ville de Nancy.

Goofs
During bombing runs, the plane is being attacked by anti-aircraft artillery and fighters at the same time. This would not happen as the fighters would stay outside the area when AAA is firing on the planes to avoid being shot down by their own guns.

Quotes
Captain Freycinet: It's a fine day.
Renault: Any day that takes us closer to France is a fine day.

Passage to Marseille review

It looks like a sure-fire winner on paper, but nothing about Passage to Marseille really clicks. Bogie's Devil's Island escapee never feels like a fully-rounded character, and Greenstreet, Lorre and Rains - Bogart's fellow stars from the same studio's Casablanca - are wasted in largely inconsequential roles. Another negative: the clumsy flashback structure plays havoc with the pacing of the story. Still watchable, but a definite misfire.
