Turner Classic Movies is showing this film at 4:00 A.M. on Jan. 18, 2012 as part of their month-long tribute to fourth-billed Angela Lansbury. According to Bret Wood on the TCM website, Baltimore actually got this film before New York, which in this era usually meant that the film was a dud the studio didn't want the metropolitan critics to see. TCM has a trailer available as well.
The second feature has a Swedish cast but is directed by classic Hollywood helmsman John Cromwell, with Patrick O'Neal as a token American. The New York Times gave it a mixed review. "If only the picture had stuck to sex," Howard Thompson laments.
