Wissenswertes
In the scene where Annemarie tells Von Sturm of her recent exploits as she prepares to bathe, the slip she is wearing is so sheer that it becomes see-through. This was not unusual for the pre-code era during which the production was filmed, but would have been considered too risque for a movie of the post-code era which immediately followed.

Patzer
The film takes place in 1915, yet refers to Mata Hari being caught and executed. Mata Hari was not arrested until 13 February 1917, and executed on 15 October 1917.

Zitate
Douglas Beall: Oh, ah, whom shall I say is calling?
Ali Bey: I am Ali Bey
Douglas Beall: Ali Bey? Pig Latin?
Ali Bey: What?
Douglas Beall: Oh, nothing sir.

Over-Ripe

Myrna Loy is a German spy on a mission to Istanbul. It is of the highest importance to Germany; the entire course of the war may depend on it. But she has met an American, George Brent, and is in love. Can she carry out her job through the haze of conflicting emotions?

Miss Loy had reached stardom through her amazing beauty, and had been cast for the last five years as exotics, and here she is again. But she had already made the switch to Americans in comedies, beginning with Frank Capra the previous year, and more important for her career at MGM, in MANHATTAN MELODRAMA and THE THIN MAN. Yet here she is at her old job, and it looks a little tired, despite the pre-code touches. Still, the MGM gloss and James Wong Howe's lighting cover up a multitude of sins. With Lionel Atwill, C. Henry Gordon, and Leo G. Carroll in his screen debut.
