David Bruce and Brenda Marshall in Singapore Woman (1941)

Trivia

Singapore Woman

Edit
Singapore Woman (1941) is an American romantic drama directed by Jean Negulesco and starring Brenda Marshall, David Bruce and Virginia Field. The Warner Bros. B picture is a remake of Dangerous (1935) using leftover sets from The Letter (1940). The story was based on Laird Doyle's story "Hard Luck Dame". At one point, both Ida Lupino and Jeffrey Lynn were attached to the project but the latter was suspended by the studio after refusing to play in the film. Although Negulesco was the sole credited director, he left the production and the film was completed by producer Harlan Thompson.
This was a remake of the Warner Bros. film Dangerous (1935), starring Bette Davis and directed by Alfred E. Green. That film was written by Laird Doyle, who is given story credit for Singapore Woman (1941) by SAB.
The porch and steps of David Ritchie's (David Bruce) plantation house is the same set as the one used in The Letter (1940), where Leslie Crosbie (Bette Davis) shot her lover.
A 1941 news item stated that Howard Jackson was assigned to write the score, but his contribution to the completed film has not been confirmed.
The working titles of the film were "Singapore" and "Jinx Woman".
