    Trivia
  • Buddy Ebsen`s first movie.
  • Eleanor Powell was dubbed by Marjorie Lane.
  • Rumours say that Eleanor Powell didn`t want at first to play in the movie but was too polite to tell MGM officials directly. She asked for the leading role and an exorbitant salary, and MGM accepted her demands.
  • The announcer who introduces Jack Benny`s radio gossip report at the beginning of the film is Don Wilson, the regular announcer on Benny`s real-life radio program.
  • When retakes were needed, director Roy Del Ruth was already working on Thanks a Million (1935), so W.S. Van Dyke directed the retakes.
