TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Since Peter Lawford spoke French fluently and June Allyson did not, Lawford had to teach Allyson how to teach him to speak French in the French Lesson scene.

Peter Lawford and June Allyson would be reunited 25 years later in the film They Only Kill Their Masters (1972), which was also the last film shot on the old MGM backlot before the land was sold.

In the film That's Entertainment! (1974), Peter Lawford stated that he felt admittedly miscast in this picture because "as a singer or dancer, I was ill-equipped to compete with Astaire or Kelly, but we did what we were told to do" under the studio system.

June Allyson was playing a college student at 30 years old.

One of the three films June Allyson considered her personal favorites of her films.

Popular Dialogues

"Pooch: Come on, Bobby, get your uniform off. Bobby Turner: Aw, gee, Poochy. I get so little chance to wear it I like to keep it on until the last minute. Sometimes I even rub a little dirt on it just to convince myself I'm really on the team."

"Tommy Marlowe: Pat, I don't understand it, I'm a very popular guy! Pat McClellan: [uninterested] Oh, really? Tommy Marlowe: Yes, by this time next year I'll be All-American! Pat McClellan: Oh, does that mean you'll be a citizen?"
