This film's earliest documented telecast took place in Salt Lake City Thursday 31 May 1956, with a repeat showing Sunday 10 June 1956 on KUTV (Channel 2); it first aired in San Francisco Wednesday 11 July 1956 on KPIX (Channel 5). Almost immediately legal problems arose because of the original play providing source material for the then forthcoming musical version, Most Happy Fella, and it was taken out of release. Today, it's archived in the Turner Classic Movies film library, but has yet to be telecast on TCM or any other cable station, because of these same problems.
Partially filmed in Napa Valley at what is now the Calistoga Inn, and at St Helena's train station.
In March 1941, at some locations, this film was shown on an RKO double bill with "Sixty Glorious Years", distributed in the USA with the alternate title "Queen of Destiny".
