Trivia:
Jack Clayton, the Scotland Yard inspector played by `~2038~`, is named after the film's cameraman, `~Jack Clayton~`, who later became a well-known director. `~2032~` (aka `~James Helvick~`) wrote the screenplay based on his novel. `~2030~` was purportedly brought to complete the script late in the piece when Cockburn left or was fired. `~2033~` was involved in a serious automobile accident during production of this film, which knocked out several of his teeth and hindered his ability to speak. `~1420~` hired a young British actor noted for his mimicry skills to rerecord some of Bogart's spoken lines during post-production looping. Although it is undetectable when viewing the film today, it is `~9115~` who provides Bogart's voice during some of the scenes in this movie. `~William Styron~`'s second novel, @%Set This House on Fire%@, describes a film crew on location - obviously based on director `~1420~` and gang during the shooting of this film. The town in the novel is Ravello on Italy's Amalfi Drive, where most of the film was shot. `~1420~` was star/producer `~2033~`'s first choice to direct. However, Huston had some scheduling conflicts - he was due to make a movie with `~Katharine Hepburn~` (which was never made, as Hepburn graciously stepped aside to help out Huston), not to mention that he had to finish his then-current project @%Moulin Rouge%@. `~Nicholas Ray~`, who Bogart had worked with twice before, was considered to direct in case Huston could not finish in time. `~4819~` got his start in films working as a clapper boy on this film. This was the fifth and last movie that `~2033~` would make with `~624~`. The other four were, @%The Maltese Falcon%@, @%Casablanca%@, @%All Through the Night%@, and @%Passage to Marseille%@. At one point in the film, `~614~`'s character is referred as the "galloping major". This is the title of a film from 1951, also made by Romulus Productions, and starring `~555~`. @%The Galloping Major%@ in this other film is a racehorse. Either the writer or the director was playing an inside joke by naming two of the characters 'Chelm'. Chelm, in Yiddish folklore, refers to a village in eastern Europe that is ruled by the insane.
