Part of Cary Grant's motivation to star in film came from his desire to become an American citizen. His decision had been ill-timed, however, as the United Kingdom was at war with Germany and the United States remained officially neutral (although in September 1940 it violated its Neutrality Acts with the Destroyers for Bases Agreement). He worried that changing his citizenship from British to American during a time of war would be looked upon unfavorably by the British public. Grant believed that starring in this film would help Americans accept him as a naturalized citizen and would help bide time until the United States officially entered the war on the United Kingdom's side.
