* DawsonCasting: James Cagney was in his forties playing someone who's supposed to be in his thirties (though in this case, it's [[JustifiedTrope justified]] by the fact most of the movie is told in flashback).
* PlayingAgainstType: Raoul Walsh, better known for making gangster films like ''Film/TheRoaringTwenties'' and ''Film/HighSierra'', switches over to a romantic comedy here.
* PlayingWithCharacterType: James Cagney plays a character who gets into fights and gets thrown into jail, only this time, it's in a romantic comedy, he loses all of the fights, and he gets thrown into jail for a white-collar crime (where he's TheScapegoat).
* StarMakingRole: For Creator/RitaHayworth.
* UnderageCasting: Alan Hale, who plays Cagney's father, was only seven years older than Cagney in real life.
