Wish I remembered this movie better!
The reason Robert Mitchum was protective might have to to with earlier an experience with Otto Preminger.
During an earlier movie Angel Face with Jean Simmons, Howard Hughes instructed Preminger to treat Simmons as roughly as possible, leading the director to demand that co-star Mitchum repeatedly slap the actress harder and harder, until Mitchum turned and punched Preminger, asking if that was how he wanted it.
