Brown revised the first draft on June 13 1941 but it was again rejected by the Breen Office. <br/><br/>A revised script written by Robert D. Andrews was submitted in October 1941 and was rejected for the same reasons as Brown's drafts. RKO did not submit the script again until September 1944 when it was rejected for a fourth time.
