Frankie Sylvestrie's car is a 1933 Pierce-Arrow Eight.
His bit part as "Sonnevich" (this was before the Production Code) was the first feature film appearance for Swedish born professional wrestler Tor Johnson.
In an odd coincidence, Minna Gombell, who plays a nurse named Beulah, shares a scene with Louise Beavers, who years later starred as "Beulah" in the TV series of that title.
