What's left behind the scenes

  • The screenplay was based on the 1933 story of the kidnapping and murder of Brooke Hart, the elder son of Alexander Hart, owner of a department store in San Jose, California. Two people were arrested on suspicion of the crime. A mob stormed the jail, dragged out the suspects, took them to a nearby park, and lynched them there.
  • Fritz Lang's (1890-1976) first film shot in the United States. Having recently moved to the country, Lang did not know that, according to local law, actors and crew were entitled to a lunch break. Shortly after filming began, Lang himself had a quick bite to eat on the go, during a set change, and then continued shooting. Some members of the crew asked Spencer Tracy (1900-1967) when lunch was. The actor approached Lang with him and heard in response, "This is my set. There will be lunch when I decide." Tracy wiped his face, smearing his makeup, knowing that it would take at least an hour and a half to reapply it, shouted: "Lunch!" - and headed to lunch with the rest of the cast and crew.
  • To really anger the actors for the scene with the frenzied crowd, Fritz Lang ordered smoke bombs to be thrown at them. One of the bombs hit Bruce Cabot (1904-1972). The director's plan was so successful that several members of the crew had to hold Cabot back so he wouldn't attack Lang with his fists.
  • Fritz Lang's first film in the USA. He moved to America from Paris, where he had lived for a year after fleeing the Nazi regime in Germany.
  • Sylvia Sidney was so eager to work with Fritz Lang that she agreed to a reduced fee.
  • Fritz Lang wanted to end the film with a close-up of Sylvia Sidney's (1910-1999) tearful face. The MGM studio rejected this idea outright and forced Lang to shoot a different ending. The film ends with a kiss between the characters played by Spencer Tracy and Sylvia Sidney.
