What's left behind the scenes
- During post-production, the film faced serious problems when the owner and executive producer of RKO studio, Howard Hughes, decided to significantly change it, cutting and reshooting old scenes and adding a whole series of new ones. For this, he invited director Richard Fleischer and screenwriter Earl Fenton, who had recently finished working for him on the film noir "The Narrow Margin" (1952). Although the main filming of the first version of the picture took place in 1948, and the film in its final version was completed in May 1950, it lay on the shelf for even more than a year, and was released only at the end of August 1951.
- Negotiations between Hughes, Fleischer and Felton to refine the script stretched for several months, resulting in the addition of climactic action scenes on a yacht. As the script changed, the yacht, which was the main location for the action, gradually grew into a 150-foot-long ship with equipped interiors. To set it up, the largest soundstage of the studio was used, in which a very large pool with water was specially built. In addition, a scene with a sinking rowboat was added. This required the pool to be drained, partially rebuilt and deepened so that the boat could fully sink into it along with the people standing in it.
- After two months of additional filming and another month of editing, 1 hour and 20 minutes of new material was added to the film. When Hughes watched it, he didn’t like the actor who played Ferraro, and he ordered the scenes of this character to be reshot with a different actor. After careful searching and screen tests, Robert J. Wilke was selected for the reshoots. With Wilke, almost all of the new material scenes and several scenes from the original version had to be reshot. When the second reshoot was already three-quarters complete, Hughes saw a film starring Raymond Burr, which made such a strong impression on him that the producer ordered all of Wilke's scenes to be reshot again, replacing him with Burr.
