What's left behind the scenes
- The plot of the film is based on the eponymous novella by David Goodis.
- In one shot, Vincent Parry (Humphrey Bogart) sees his photo in the newspaper, depicting him before plastic surgery. The photo features character actor Frank Wilcox.
- This is the third of four films made while Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall were married.
- Warner Bros. paid $25,000 for the rights to David Goodis’s novella “The Black Friday.” The work was published in installments in The Saturday Evening Post from July 20 to September 7, 1946.
- Humphrey Bogart's fully visible face can only be seen at the 62nd minute of the film, after his character removes the bandages and looks in the mirror. All preceding scenes with the character are shown either from his point of view (using the 'subjective camera' technique) or in such a way that his face is hidden by shadows or bandages.
- The voice on the car radio reporting Vincent Perry's escape, while Humphrey Bogart and Clifton Young are driving, belongs to the actor Dane Clark.
- Warner Brothers President Jack L. Warner disliked the fact that Humphrey Bogart's face, a major star of his studio, was not shown on screen even once during the first half of the film. By the time he found out, it was too late to change anything, as many key scenes had already been shot.
- A photograph of Vincent, as played by Humphrey Bogart before plastic surgery, is shown, among other places, in a newspaper clipping. It was the pinnacle of photomontage for its time – using double exposure and meticulous retouching. The lower part of the face belongs to actor Kenneth McDonald, the upper part (from the middle of the nose and above) to Bogart.
