The film was one of Cary Grant's earliest movie roles. After working in the theater, while in New York, a West Coast scout discovered the actor in a Broadway play called "The Last Flight" and offered him a small role, as a young soldier, in Singapore Sue, he was hired on May 8, 1931, for six days and paid $150 for his work.[2]
The story is about four sailors, one of whom is portrayed by Cary Grant in his third screen appearance released, enjoying themselves in a Singapore bar.
The film was shot at Kaufman Astoria Studios.
