TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

In a scene shortly after arriving at Oxford, Sheridan meets with his assigned tutor, who asks him, "What are you reading?" by which he means what is your field of study. Sheridan, confused, replies, "Well, I am reading 'Gone With The Wind', but I am only halfway through it." Vivien Leigh, also in this movie, would of course portray Scarlett in Gone with the Wind (1939) which was released the year after this movie. Reportedly, it was known as early as 1937 from a David O. Selznick memo that Leigh had secured the role.

The OUAC on the shirts of the track team stands for Oxford University Athletic Club.

The first feature film of Jon Pertwee.

Cardinal College is based on Christ Church, Oxford and the entrance gate is closely modeled on Tom Gate at Christ Church. It was originally founded by Cardinal Thomas Wolsey as Cardinal College but taken over and renamed by Henry VIII after Wolsey's downfall.

Jack Conway took over as director after Michael Balcon, who was to both produce and direct, quit after clashing with MGM chief Louis B. Mayer. Balcon stayed on as producer.

"Elsa Craddock: [In the Dean's office, confessing] Oh Marmaduke, how can you? We were foolish, but it was only a flirtation. Wavertree: [confused] I'm awfully sorry sir, but I'm afraid this is all rather beyond me... Dean of Cardinal: [impatiently] Now don't lie to me sir, Mrs. Craddock has freely confessed everything! Wavertree: Everything? Dean of Cardinal: Everything! Elsa Craddock: Everything! Wavertree: [catching on] Oh... oh, she has! Oh... heh heh... oh, whoo! What a relief, sir! Now I need lie no more! Dean of Cardinal: Ah, then you admit it! Wavertree: Yes, rah-ther sir! Every time! I'd have told you in the first place sir, but we Wavertrees always protect the lady in the case! Elsa Craddock: [somewhat sarcastic] He has a natural power over women. Try to use it for good, Marmaduke."

"Dean Snodgrass: Well, Mr Jenkins and what are you reading? Lee Sheridan: Well, I'm still reading 'Gone with the Wind' but I'm only halfway through"
