- TriviaFor the 1945 re-release print, Warner Bros. changed the opening credits order for their new star Humphrey Bogart, now listing him above Ann Sheridan before the title and moving Jeffrey Lynn to the "With" cast after the title. The end credits, however, were kept in their original order.
- GoofsAt the 17 minute mark after Bogart stands up from the bed, the boom mic shadow moves across his hat.
- Quotes
Sarah Jane Ryan aka Sal: Can you imagine? He was going to make me a torch singer. He took me into his studio and after about five minutes I said, "Yeah, well, I've never heard this called an audition before." He followed me home in a taxi cab. Yeah, and with a gat too!
[Throws gun onto table]
Sarah Jane Ryan aka Sal: As if I didn't know how to handle a monkey with a gat!
Miss Flint: The man who followed me...?
Sarah Jane Ryan aka Sal: He said he wanted to discover me. Me! Why, I've been discovered so many times they call me Miss America.

Music by Paul Mann and Stefan Weiß
Lyrics by Kim Gannon
Played during the opening credits and as background music
Played on piano by Jeffrey Lynn and sung by Ann Sheridan
Reprised by the band at the Roaring 90s Club and sung by Ann Sheridan and chorus of waiters
There's Ann Sheridan, always totally likable--plus, in this movie she sings "You're Just an Angel in Disguise." There's also a funny dog act.
Humphrey Bogart plays his stock gangster role, but this time he has to deal with ZaSu Pitts and Una O'Connor as two spinsters, one a feisty spark-plug and the other delusionally lovelorn.
At one point, tough guy Bogie as much as says, "Hey, gang, let's put on a show!" And they do. That's where the dog act comes in.
Plus there's a nostalgiac Gay Nineties review, including a barbershop quartet.
And a number of Irish songs in the background and, ultimately, in the spotlight, including a rousing version of "When Irish Eyes Are Smiling."
I won't give away the ending, but trust me, you'll say, "Aw, ain't that nice!"
Kind of a fun movie.
