Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was the first feature produced by Jules Levy, Arthur Gardner, and Arnold Laven's company— they'd later make 'The Rifleman' and 'McHale's Navy.'
Shot on location in Los Angeles, the film captures Bunker Hill before urban renewal destroyed it—those streets are literally gone now.
