Production
One Terrible Day was one of four Our Gang comedies produced by Roach Studios in the spring and early summer of 1922. The pilot film, Our Gang, went into production in April, and Fire Fighters began in early May. Young Sherlocks was produced in April and May, and One Terrible Day in early July. Roach showed all four films in the Los Angeles area throughout the summer for the benefit of the critics to "smash critical reaction." Of the four, Roach decided to release the film to the public first. Consequently, One Terrible Day was the fourth Our Gang film to enter production, but the first to be released.

Famous quotes containing the word production:
“... if the production of any commodity necessitates the sacrifice of human life, society should do without that commodity, but it can not do without that life.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
“The production of obscurity in Paris compares to the production of motor cars in Detroit in the great period of American industry.”
—Ernest Gellner (b. 1925)
“The growing of food and the growing of children are both vital to the family’s survival.... Who would dare make the judgment that holding your youngest baby on your lap is less important than weeding a few more yards in the maize field? Yet this is the judgment our society makes constantly. Production of autos, canned soup, advertising copy is important. Housework—cleaning, feeding, and caring—is unimportant.”
—Debbie Taylor (20th century)
