Screenwriter and future director Henri-Georges Clouzot worked on the script of the remake. It was shot at the Saint-Maurice Studios in Paris and on location around the city. The film's sets were designed by the art director Jean Bijon. It is also known by the alternative title Bargekeeper's Daughter.
