Trivia

Troubled actress Frances Farmer was cast in this film in the role of "Helen", and showed up for the first day of filming, but was later fired by Monogram for allegedly slapping a studio hairdresser. She was replaced by Mary Brian. She was subsequently arrested for violating her parole from a previous drunk-driving charge. She reputedly appears in at least one montage sequence, but was essentially cut out of the finished film. This would be her penultimate picture. Her last would come 15 years later in The Party Crashers (1958).

I Escaped from the Gestapo (1943) was also known as No Escape.

Edmund Lowe was meant to star, and George 'Spanky' McFarland of 'Our Gang' fame appears as Billy, the newspaper boy.

Actor William Marshall, who portrayed "Lunt," was listed in the onscreen credits as "Billy Marshall."

The aircraft seen taking off at the end of the film is a 1936 American Airlines DC-3, registration NC16015 named "Flagship Kentucky". It was sold to Bonanza Airlines in 1955, re-registered as N492 and re-named as "Imperial Queen". In 1961 is was exported to Japan for use by the Ministry of Transporation's Aviation Bureau until 1970, and was scrapped in 1972.
