Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- The Hays Office called the script's two love affairs "overloading" and objected to a "night of sordid passion"; after an April 25, 1946 memo, all references to Madeleine's parents were cut from the finished film.
- Dishonored Lady was shot at California Studios between early May and late July 1946, and it exceeded its budget by $1.2 million, failing at the box office.
