MGM put a great deal of pressure on Sir Alfred Hitchcock to eliminate the scene in the woods, after Eve shoots Roger. MGM felt that it was an unnecessary scene that incurred the needless expense of building the set on a soundstage using one hundred ponderosa pines. Hitchcock, however, felt that it was an indispensable scene, because it's the first meeting between Roger and Eve since he learned she was a double agent. Hitchcock won out in the end, thanks to his contract that gave him complete artistic control of the movie, regardless of production time or cost.
