Although the second Mrs. Dick Powell (Joan Blondell) was no fan of the third Mrs. Powell (June Allyson), she asked her daughter (and Allyson's stepdaughter) Ellen Powell to speak to Allyson about a role in this movie. It was Blondell's return to movies after a five-year absence, and despite the rather difficult history involving the two Mrs. Powells, all went reasonably smoothly.
Remake of the non-musical movie Femmes (1939) starring Norma Shearer, Joan Crawford, and Rosalind Russell. Allegedly, original star Joan Crawford commented on this remake by saying, "It's ridiculous. Norma and I might not ever have been bosom buddies, but we towered compared to those pygmies in the remake."
Jo Ann Greer provided the singing voice for June Allyson on the ballad "A Perfect Love", possibly the only time in Allyson's career that she was ever dubbed.
