Cast notes:
- This was Shirley Mills’ first role and she would later appear in The Grapes of Wrath (film) in 1939. She would go on to appear in many films over the next decade, mostly in supporting roles. She quit acting in her twenties to become a singer.
- This was Bob Bollinger‘s only film role. According to Mills’ website, now offline, the two young actors became friends, and Bollinger later asked her to marry him, which she declined.
- Angelo Rossitto had a long career in movies, stretching from the 1920s to the 1990s. He is perhaps best known for his role as Master in Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome (1985). The reason he was billed as “Don Barrett” in this film is unknown.
- Along with Mills and Rossitto, Warner Richmond was one of the few actors involved in this film who had any sort of film career. He appeared in over 140 films between 1912 and 1946, including the Gene Autry serial The Phantom Empire (1935).
