Trivia and QuotesQuotes Senora Perez: How I worry when I see my daughter leave in the morning.
Concha Perez: How can you say that, Mother, when you sleep all day? Concha Perez: Mother says no flies enter a closed mouth. Gov. Don Paquito `Paquitito`: If you catch a man stealing, shoot him. Less trouble afterwards. Concha Perez: Listen to me, Pasqualito. You never loved me or you couldn`t do this.
Capt. Don Pasqual `Pasqualito` Costelar: You know very well that I loved you.
Concha Perez: You`ve always mistaken your vanity for love. It`s your final mistake. Go and kill the only man I ever cared for. Antonio Galvan: You`re a very beautiful woman. It`s easy to see why men should lose their heads over you.
Concha Perez: Is it easy? Capt. Don Pasqual `Pasqualito` Costelar: Aren`t you afraid of anything, Concha? Have you no fear of death?
Concha Perez: No. Not today. I feel too happy. Why do you ask? Are you going to kill me? Capt. Don Pasqual `Pasqualito` Costelar: I`ve been thinking things over for some time now, and I`ll be happy to make you my wife. Then no one could speak ill of you.
Concha Perez: But no one speaks ill of me now!Trivia One of over 700 Paramount Productions, filmed between 1929 and 1949, which were sold to MCA/Universal in 1958 for television distribution, and have been owned and controlled by Universal ever since. In Maximillian Schell`s documentary "Marlene", Marlene Dietrich said that this was her favorite of her films. The Spanish government threatened to bar all Paramount films from Spain and its territories unless the film was withdrawn from worldwide circulation. They protested the unfavorable portrayal of the Spanish police. Paramount destroyed the original print after its initial run, and it remained out of circulation until 1959. Joel McCrea left the cast after one day`s work because of a disagreement with director Josef von Sternberg. Joseph Breen of the Hays Office suggested an ending in which Pasqual shoots Concha so that she could not get off scot-free after years of bad behavior. Although that was rejected, several cuts were eventually made to eliminate sexual innuendos. | ||
