Ann Sheridan appeared in this movie as part of her settlement with RKO after her dismissal from RKO's "My Forbidden Past" (1951).
After the film was released, a reporter said in his newspaper that he did not know who played the ants, but that they were the best actors in this picture.
Ann Sheridan and Glenn Ford disliked each other very much on the set. Sheridan first provoked him by arguing that he could not make the film with her.
