Production
This Thin Man movie differs in several respects from the others in the series. It was one of two films in the series not directed by W.S. Van Dyke, who died in 1943, and the script was one of two not written by the husband and wife team of Albert Hackett and Frances Goodrich who had worked with Dashiell Hammett to develop the Nick and Nora characters earlier in the series.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“The development of civilization and industry in general has always shown itself so active in the destruction of forests that everything that has been done for their conservation and production is completely insignificant in comparison.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“The heart of man ever finds a constant succession of passions, so that the destroying and pulling down of one proves generally to be nothing else but the production and the setting up of another.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Perestroika basically is creating material incentives for the individual. Some of the comrades deny that, but I can’t see it any other way. In that sense human nature kinda goes backwards. It’s a step backwards. You have to realize the people weren’t quite ready for a socialist production system.”
—Gus Hall (b. 1910)
