Trivia and Quotes

Quotes
  • Quinn: [to Alice] He could`ve had the whole world. So he leaned over sideways and grabbed you.
    Witty [1948]
    Trivia
  • Errors made by characters (possibly deliberate errors by the filmmakers): Charley Davis`s fiancee, Peg, leaves him a note and misspells his name, "Charlie."
  • An extremely large number of the cast and crew on the film - writer Abraham Polonsky, actors John Garfield, Anne Revere, Lloyd Gough, Canada Lee, Art Smith, Shimen Ruskin, producer Bob Roberts and even, albeit to a lesser extent, cinematographer James Wong Howe - found themselves either blacklisted or greylisted during the HUAC witch hunts of the 1950s, while director Robert Rossen only avoided that fate by naming names.

  • To get a more fluid camera movement in the boxing ring, cinematographer James Wong Howe filmed the fight while holding the camera and being pushed by an assistant as he wore roller skates.
