TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Features the only movie appearance of Katharine Cornell (Herself).

The real Stage Door Canteen at 216 W. 44th St., Times Square, was unable to be used for filming, as it was still an operating nightclub during World War II. As such, for this movie, it was re-created at R.K.O. Radio Pictures studios in Culver City, California.

Along with Too Many Kisses (1925), this is one of only two movies in which Harpo Marx appeared without his brothers Chico and Groucho.

Katharine Hepburn's only musical appearance.

Producer Sol Lesser paid the Stage Door Canteen fifty thousand dollars for the use of its name. They and Allied Charities received the profits from this movie.
