- TriviaThe Evans-Childers Circus shown in the film was an actual circus. Although little can be found about the history of the show, its posters occasionally come up for auction.
- GoofsWhenever there is an outside nighttime scene, with the sounds of crickets and frogs, there is a noticeable "gap" of silence (repeated in longer scenes), indicating the sound effect is being looped.
- Quotes
Gus Hilmer: Frankie, give the lady my card .. here; come to me anytime you need new tires, lubrication, change oil; everything on the house.

Underrated Hugo Haas Delivers Another Poverty-Row Film-Noir With Some Sizzles
The Hugo Haas Bio Deserves Attention from Anyone Interested in B-Movies, Especially of the Film-Noir Type,
that He Made His Specialty in the Last-Act of a Long and Rich Career in the Movies, that Ended where He Did Everything but Sweep the Floor.
In this one, He Follows the Film-Noir Mainstay that He Repeated Now and Then of an Older, Well-to-Do Man who Manages to Snare a Young, Pretty, Bad-Girl.
Only to be Set-Up for the Knock-Off by a Femme Fatale (Cleo Moore who made 7 Movies with her discoverer).
The Handsome-Hunk on the Side-Lines Willing and Able to Do the Deed is Vince Edwards (a smoldering, sexy, Body-Builder in real life), whose Claim-to-Fame was Playing "Ben Casey" on TV for 5 Years. (1961-66).
"Hit and Run" has a Number of Thrills (check out that lion tamer Dolores Reed), Twists, and Spills, and Like Always Hugo's Bang-for-the-Buck, Delivers.
This Would be Cleo Moore's Last Film After Giving Hollywood a Try in a Few Films with some Minor Success, but Never Hit the Big-Big-Time. Just Like Her Mentor Hugo.
Once Again Check Out His Bio. A Fascinating Immigrants Hollywood History if there ever was One.
He was one of the Most Hard Working Talents that was Chewed Up by the Movie-Industry that He Loved and was Dismissed as a "Bottom Feeder" and in Later Years was Given the Undeserved Nick-Name of the "Foreign Ed Wood".
He was Once Gregory Peck's , among others, Acting Coach for Heaven Sake.
