Trivia and QuotesQuotes Captain Alan Gaskell: Did you ever see an English river?
Dolly `China Doll` Portland: No, I`m dumb at geography just like I am at everything else.
Captain Alan Gaskell: Well, it`s cool and clear. Put a stream like that alongside any river out here - dirty, yellow, muddy - you`ll see the difference. Captain Alan Gaskell: Now wait a minute, Dolly! You and I are friends. We`ve had a lot of fun together, and, as far as I`m concerned, you`re #1 girl in the Archipelago, but I don`t remember making any vows to you, nor do I recall your taking any.
Captain Alan Gaskell: [hearing someone in his bathroom] Who`s in there?
Dolly `China Doll` Portland: China Doll, the gal that drives men mad.
Captain Alan Gaskell: What are you doin` aboard?
Dolly `China Doll` Portland: Nothing alarming. Just showering dewdrops off the body beautiful.
Captain Alan Gaskell: [to chief officer] It`s bad enough to have a ship that looks like this and a captain who looks like me without having a chief officer who looks like you.
Dolly `China Doll` Portland: But you taught me something I didn`t even know myself. When a woman can love a man right down to her fingernails, she can hate him the same way.
Dolly `China Doll` Portland: Lovin` you is the only decent thing I did in my life.
Jamesy MacArdle: Still crazy about that Gaskell, huh? Well, whenever you get tired of runnin; around with an Airedale and you want to run around with a St. Bernard, why you let me know.
Dolly `China Doll` Portland: Sure. Whenever I get lost in the Alps, I`ll whistle for you.
Jamesy MacArdle: All right, I`ll come runnin`. Goodbye, Dolly.
Dolly `China Doll` Portland: See you later.
Jamesy MacArdle: [to an unconcious Gaskell] There can`t be any gold. You would have talked. Nobody can be that tough.Trivia Jean Harlow wore a wig for this film. She had cut her hair shorter and was letting her natural color grow in. But for the scene where her character Dolly is soaked, the wig could not be used because it would look fake. Thus for a few seconds Harlow`s hair is shorter and a different color. The film was banned in Malaya and Singapore. While shooting in the studio two stuntmen were nearly killed as they were washed away by 50 tons of water. | ||
