A new print has been made of this film which received its premiere at the Motion Picture Academy of Arts and Sciences on 21 May 1999.

Brothers Vincent and Johnny Lubeck were played by actual brothers Lawrence Tierney and Edward Tierney (actor Scott Brady is also one of the Tierney brothers).

The $500,000.00 they were planning on stealing from the armored car in 1951, would be the equivalent of $5,057,961 in 2021.
