???? Production & Historical Notes
• Literary Disconnect: Despite utilizing P.G. Wodehouse’s famous characters, the screenplay bears no resemblance to the author's original novels, a point of significant frustration for Wodehouse himself.
• A Rising Star: This film served as a major professional stepping stone for David Niven, who was beginning his ascent to Hollywood stardom despite the modest nature of this B-feature production
. • Studio Economics: Produced as a second-feature "B-movie" by 20th Century-Fox, the film was designed for quick turnover and was restricted by import quotas in the UK at the time.
