TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

The first woman seen is a maid, Olga, who is played by none other than The Beaver's mother, Barbara Billingsley (Leave It to Beaver (1957)).

The novel upon which this film is based, "Death in a Doll's House", was serialized in The Saturday Evening Post from January 16 to February 27, 1943.

MGM borrowed Gigi Perreau from Samuel Goldwyn, Zachary Scott from Warner Bros., and Kristine Miller from Paramount for this film.

The treating psychiatrist, Dr. Caroline Canford, is played by a future First Lady, Nancy Reagan (credited under her pre-marriage maiden name, Nancy Davis). Nancy had met then First Lady Grace Coolidge when she was seven.

Susan mentions that her father used to read her "The King of the Golden River". She is referring to a real parable by the prominent English art critic John Ruskin which was first published in book form in 1851 and was a best-seller at the time.
