- TriviaOn this film's release, the director credit was given to producer Alec C. Snowden rather than to the (then) blacklisted Joseph Losey. Several prints give the credit to "Joseph Walton" whose full name was Joseph Walton Losey.
- GoofsIn the pub with Evelyn, the bottle of whiskey is still filled to the top of the label when Reginald gets up, but when he sits back down a moment later and Evelyn asks for her glass to be refilled, the bottle is only filled to the bottom of the label.

Joseph Losey Surely Was The Man For A Film About Betrayal In the Film Industry
This is a stylish and engrossing noir. The music seems a bit dated but the use of background sound is inventive and seems to presage Godard's. Is this Joseph Losey's best? No. "Time Without Pity," a year later, is far more powerful and less predictable. Not at all predictable, actually, and this one is. The resolution is not a surprise, exactly, but it is powerfully presented and moving.
Mary Murphy played a good bitch. I haven't seen her in many movies but it seems that she often was cast in this was. Losey uses the clattering of her high heels effectively. Actually, she is not a thoroughly bad character. She feels remorse.
Constance Cummins is excellent as the star imported for the main character's big project. Her helping him out of his predicament is touching. And Richard Basehart: One of the best American actors, he is superb here. He did not win the conventional awards but will long be remembered, if only for his beautiful playing in "La Strada" (and for his mousy pharmacist in what I consider the perfect noir: "Tension.")
