Sonia Darrin, who portrays beautiful Agnes, is still alive, now aged 95. Ms. Darrin is the last surviving member of the primary cast - perhaps of the full cast overall.
It's incredible, and so very wrong, that her substantial role in this film is uncredited.
Per a 17 February 2016 New York Post-published interview with her:
When the film finally opened in August 1946, Darrin was shocked to see she hadn’t received an on-screen credit for a fairly prominent role....// “My agent had gotten into some kind of argument with [studio chief] Jack Warner, and Warner was so infuriated that he told the agent he was never to come on the lot again and he wouldn’t use any of his clients,’’ she says. “Warner couldn’t cut me out of the movie, but he could get even with my agent. That was unheard of, to be featured in a movie and not even be listed.’’ //....When Darrin finally landed another part, “it was a woman who ends up in a coffin [in 1947’s ‘Bury Me Dead’], and after that I was basically being asked to do the same role over and over....That’s when I decided I was no longer interested in making movies. So I moved to New York and had a fairly successful career as a model” working for Eileen Ford’s renowned agency.
Hard to believe that Ms. Darrin is former child actor (popular star of many 1970s t.v. commercials) Mason Reese's mother.
