Note that this was an unusual role for Ronald Reagan, who usually played very clean cut characters! Also note that Gloria Blondell apparently got her start in movies thanks to her sister Joan, with a supporting role in the movie she made before this. But apparently she did not catch on at all, because after this starring role, she was reduced to minor supporting roles, and some TV. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
