The 1950s were not Hedy's best film period. After 1951 she was only on television as a guest and finished her last feature films, which were a mere shadow of her films from the previous decades. At the end of such an interesting career, it called for a more optimistic project than the usual noir intergenerational feud, in which the "once" charming Hedy Lamarr plays the older one and the other one.
