COMMENTARY

"[The screenplay] had been floating around Svensk Filmindustri for a long time in synopsis form. For my efforts, they would pay me more than required by my current slave contract. They were also in a hurry....Working rapidly, [Alf] Sjöberg and I started churning out the script for Last Couple Out, from which Sjöberg later wrote his own version. I did not care one whit about Last Couple Out. But if Svensk Filmindustri and Sjöberg wanted to film it, I was happy to take the money."
