Final cinema film of Wayne Morris (I). NOTE: He appeared in Buffalo Gun (1961), which was released in 1961, but it was shot in 1957, before this film. For the remainder of his career he appeared on television.
A calendar in the gas station where the attendant gets shot, displays "July 1957." The film was released that fall.
Bombshell Nora Hayden has a small role as a waitress, and yet her face and not the lead criminal Gene Raymond's moll Jeanne Cooper adorns the official Blu Ray. Hayden is also on many of the lobby cards and posters. Ironically, her character is a kind of "backup moll" in that she states how she hopes the criminals get away, and even has a feeling that Gene Raymond is one of them, and asks him if he's returning.
The working title of this film was The Violent Road.
