Originally intended to be photographed in 3-D and to be titled "Man-Killer."
Average Shot Length = ~8 seconds. Median Shot Length = ~8.4 seconds.
Final film of veteran director D. Ross Lederman (although he did not direct but served as Associate Producer).
Produced by John Wayne through his Wayne-Fellows production company. Wayne managed to persuade William A. Wellman to do over $100,000 worth of re-shoots for a percentage of the profits.
As movies are usually filmed a full year before they're released, when real-life marquees are shown they're of a previous year's film. In this case, along the parade street, a theater marquee has Otto Preminger's The Moon Is Blue (1953) on it.
