WUSSTEST DU SCHON:
- WissenswertesThe film was a $563,000 money loser for MGM, according to studio records, which would equate to about $6.64 million in 2024. It did not even make back the film's negative expenditures, let alone duplication, distribution and advertising costs.
- PatzerIn the bar as Nancy is drunkenly explaining her mess of a life and swipes her glass off the table that crashes to the floor, no one in the bar turns their head to acknowledge the noise. Surely, someone would have noticed. Not a Continuity Goof and probably not even a Goof - in some bars, breaking glassware is very common, and though people notice, they don't turn and gawk, because they feel everyone should mind their own business.

Nancy: [after Chu Chu tells her about his letter from the President about getting his citizenship] Ramirez, today you drive a tractor, tomorrow you'll sweat your ears off in some stinking fish cannery. Next week you'll be breaking your back in asparagus, spinach and grapes. And you think you're a citizen First Class? Citizen of what? What you are is a sap, and all you've got is the papers to prove it.
- SoundtracksStormy Weather
Written by Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler
Chu Chu is proud to become an American citizen. He believes in the dream , in democracy and Lincoln's country cannot be wrong ; in direct contrast with him ,Nancy ,an alcoholic loser , has lost all her illusions ; but neither she nor the vilain,Ames ,can destroy Chu Chu's faith ,joie de vivre and hope for a better future .
The world can't be thoroughly black or white;even in his most desperate work, "ox -bow " ,seven people were the just against a maddening bunch ; Chu Chu is a good man who would not hurt a fly ,and the members of the jury (it's rare) do think it's a travesty of a trial ; and the way Chu Chu's friends torment Ames to awaken his conscience is pacifist, friendly persuasion, through and through ( going as far as to give a kitten to the wife)
Montalban ,Winters,Corey and Trevor are all excellent.
