Wissenswertes
When Eddie is repairing Mrs. Jacoby's TV, rather than actually shooting the scene with material already selected and pre-recorded to be seen on the TV's screen, the filmmakers used another, less expensive trick; since TV scan rates are not the same as film, whenever a TV is seen (and it's showing something being broadcast), the dark scan lines are visible (and sometimes the TV's picture will "roll"). As this was still early in the TV-era, showing TVs broadcasting was something of a novelty, but it came with the aforementioned problems. To combat this, a "TV" was built (or, more accurately, something which looked like a TV). What's being shown on the "screen"' is actually film, which is being projected from behind the scene, and with the aid of a mirror, and a semi-translucent material to give the illusion of a screen, the result is that a high-quality image is seen, and there's no problem synching camera with TV.

Russell and Guiness: Two Professionals!

Warner Bros. cast movie stars Rosalind Russell, and Alec Guiness in this movie based on the hit Broadway play directed by long time veteran Mervyn Le Roy with very fine Warner Bros production values.

Rosalind Russell an Irish Catholic Yankee was cast as a Brooklyn Jewish Matron, the part played by Gertrude Berg on Broadway. There is a lot of mileage between Roz Russell and Gertrude Berg! English star ( and also Catholic) Alec Guiness was assigned to play the Japanese male lead. Ms. Russell had a lot of talent and is one of the most glaring examples of a great actress who never won an Oscar. Alec Guiness right off his great Oscar win in The Bridge On The River Kwai playing the English officer tormented by his Japanese captors is elegant and intelligent in his performance in this film. Due to the deft professionalism and talent do these two very fine Stars pull off their characterization's.

Gary Vinson and Sharon Hugueny both WB stars are listed in the credits but I only saw them briefly. Warners contract star Ray Danton is fine in this film.
