* TroubledProduction: According to producer John Houseman, Chandler fell into "writer's block" on the last third of the script during shooting (possibly a euphemism for CreativeDifferences related to the above ExecutiveMeddling), and straight-up said he couldn't finish it; he eventually wrote out the rest ''blind drunk'', consuming almost nothing but alcohol (plus glucose injections from his doctor) for eight days. This anecdote is one of the most (in)famous surrounding Chandler and UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfHollywood in general, but in modern times several people have cast doubt on whether all - or ''[[BlatantLies any]]'' - of it is true, as some of the dates and facts in Houseman's memoirs don't quite stack up to contemporary documents from Paramount.
