Notes

Although records at the NYSA include Too Hot to Handle as an alternate title of the film Fig Leaf Frolics, which is listed as a 1955 release, there is insufficient credit or plot information to verify if the two films are the same. Modern sources indicate that the film Too Hot to Handle May have been released in 1950. For information on Fig Leaf Frolics, see the entry above.
