Trivia
The film started production in the San Francisco produce market, through the cooperation of the Wholesale Fruit and Produce Dealers Association. After the studio decided to use the title of the source novel "Thieves' Market" for the film, the Dealers Association strongly protested, and the title was changed.

Errores
At the end, when Nick is confronting Mike, he hits Mike's hand with the small hatchet. The head of the hatchet can be seen flying off the end of the handle. However, in subsequent scenes, the head is back on the handle. (correction follows) Nick is holding the hatchet by the head and hits Mike with the butt end, at which time, some unidentified object already on the table bounces into the foreground. At this point, the entire hatchet head can still be seen in Nick's hand.

In the same scene, Mike can be seen nursing his injured, bloodied hand. Later, however, as Nick attacks Mike, there is no sign of blood on Mike's hand.

Citas
Rica: [knowingly, after getting out of the shower, and hearing that Polly has walked out on Nick] Aren't women wonderful?

Another Gem from Jules Dassin

I have stumbled over the works of Jules Dassin only lately, first the atmospheric and gripping "Night and the City" and now "Thieves Highway", something you would certainly label a sociological drama today. Rchard Conte as a guy out on the mission to avenge the death of his brother and the crippling of his father from indirectly the hands of a corrupt fruit market guy. Wonderful acting by all main people, Richard Conte, Lee J Cobb, Millard Mitchell, and the Italian actress who never made it to a status that i can recall her name without checking the credits again... Dire portrait of the fight for existence of the trucker guys, the ways the retailer controls both ends of the supply chain and the mean and dark ways in a big market. Vegetables and fruits may just be a metaphor for something else, you see.... If you can get it on cable or DVD, don't let it pass by.
