[1] The movie was financed by Endeavour Film Productions Ltd, created by a group of businessmen, with the intention to produce one feature and four shorts a year.
It was based on a novel by William Lynch and was advertised as: Completely unlike anything attempted before... the most interesting film project yet undertaken in this country... the characters are real people, with the authentic ring of the present day.
The story unfolds against a background of the more Bohemian, sections of Kings Cross and the idyllic seclusion of the Pacific coast near Palm Beach.
[2] The rest of the cast was mostly taken from popular radio actors, including Sydney Wheeler and Lloyd Lamble.
[5] Members of the cast were allowed to continue with stage and/or radio work provided it did not interfere with the film's production schedule.
