Danielle Darrieux is the only actor who actually sings for herself.
Before Jacques Demy selected Rochefort as the location for this movie, he also considered Avignon, Hyeres, Toulouse, and La Rochelle among others. Rochefort won out because of the size of its central square, though production designer Bernard Evein found it necessary to repaint 40,000 square meters of the city's façades.
Jacques Demy originally thought of casting Brigitte Bardot and Audrey Hepburn as the twin sisters.
In some scenes, Gene Kelly's voice is dubbed, while in others it's not.
Françoise Dorléac was tragically killed in a car accident at age 25 just three months after the film's release in France and almost a year before it was released in the U.S.
"Delphine, Solange: [singing] We are a pair of twins born in the sign of Gemini, Mi fa so la mi re, Re mifa so so so re do, We're two demoiselles who took to the boys long ago, Mi fa so la mi re, Re mifa so so so re do. Delphine: Our mama brought us up on her own, Working herself all her life to the bone. Solange: To make sure our minds could expand, She's spent all her time behind a French-fry stand. Delphine, Solange: Papa was somebody that we never knew, But when we undress one thing is true, In the small of our backs - in the very same place. Delphine: There's the same beauty spot Solange: He had on his face... Delphine, Solange: We are a pair of twins born in the sign of Gemini, Mi fa so la mi re, Re mifa so so so re do, Who love catchy tunes, silly puns and repartee, Mi fa so la mi re, Re mifa so so so re do..."
"Maxence: Braque, Picasso, Klee, Miró, Matisse - - that's life!"
