At the time they made this film together, Betty Grable and George Montgomery were on the ascendant and both under contract to 20th Century-Fox. Within a year, Grable rose to the #1 position on the Top Ten Box Office Stars list, while Montgomery would eventually catch on as a leading man, but in Westerns rather than musicals. They would enjoy successful careers for decades to come.
