Drive-Ins Were Huge At The Time, So Even


though this movie is not very good, possiblity that it at least broke even. So maybe it is trash, but perhaps some people got their SAG cards and made a living in the movie business as a result of TDTB.

Except it didn't play in drive-ins. According to the description, it went on a shelf until the early 90s.

As for the actors, yes, maybe they got SAG cards out of it, but most of them didn't go on to have careers. For a lot of them, this is their only credit.

My mom was Laura Brock. Yes, she got a SAG card out of it, as she was a film double for Lana Turner, and model, and had not had any speaking parts in a film. And, she was paid $5,000 for the film, in 1956 .... That was a lot of money!!

And obviously, it made no money, as it was on the shelf for 30+ years
