Geri McGee story. In the film, the Rosenthals only have one daughter, Amy, while in real life McGee had three children. The film also implied that McGee was a part-time hustler (and perhaps a prostitute), and that her friend and lover Lester Diamond (played by James Woods) was her pimp and mentor since she was 14. In actuality, there is no evidence that McGee ever was a prostitute. The script also changed the couple's names from Geri McGee and Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal to Ginger McKenna and Sam "Ace" Rothstein (played by Robert De Niro), and Lenny Marmor to Lester Diamond.

The Casino Murder Case (film) arrest him. After thanking Mrs. Llewellyn's maid Becky (Louise Fazenda) for loading Lynn's gun with blanks, Vance resumes his romance with Doris. Cast notes: Originally William Powell and Myrna Loy were intended to star in "The Casino Murder Case", but Powell was tired of playing Vance – he was the first actor to play the part on film, and had played in the part in five earlier films – so MGM planned to use Otto Kruger, and then Fred Keating (who would have been borrowed from Columbia Pictures), Warren William, and Ricardo Cortez, before settling on Paul Lukas.
