Trivia
Humphrey Bogart and Barbara Stanwyck had a friendly relationship on set. Producer Mark Hellinger, whom Bogart liked very much, agreed that Bogart would not be seen in any painter's wardrobe which would conflict with the tough guy image he had cultivated. When a painter's smock and beret with a tassel showed up on his wardrobe clothes rack one day, the actor was furious. The smock and beret were a joke perpetrated by Stanwyck, and the two performers had a good laugh afterward.

Goofs
When Sally throws the poisoned milk out the window, most of the milk appears to go out the window, with only a small amount landing on the windowsill and none on the floor. When Geoffrey discovers the spilled milk, there is a large amount on the windowsill and an almost equal amount on the floor.

Quotes
Geoffrey Carroll: Y'know, I have the strangest feeling that this is the beginning of a beautiful hatred.

a camp classic

This is one of my favorite bad movies, so bad it's good. A great cast seems to have pulled this baby together in about two days and it's a scream. All of the stars must have owed Warners a film or succumbed to blackmail. It's too bad because it's actually a very neat suspense story starring Humphrey Bogart - without giving anything away, let's just say when he gets a headache, he touches his hand to his head. That's how you know he has a headache. About as organic as a hothouse tomato. Totally worth seeing but not anyone's best work. Watch for the continuity goof with the milk. I can't agree with another poster - I thought Alexis Smith was gorgeous.
