Shirley Temple's final film role and her only starring feature since 1934 which did not receive a contemporary New York Times review.

Because of legal complications and rights problems, the original title "A Kiss for Corliss" has since been changed to "Almost a Bride".

The basic plot of this film (teenaged girl with a crush on an older, more sophisticated man) bears a striking resemblance to a film Temple had made just the year before, The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer (1947). While that film, which co-starred Cary Grant and Myrna Loy, was one of 1948's box office hits, this one turned out to be a dud, so much so that it essentially ended Temple's film career.

This is a movie version of the popular CBS radio sitcom, "Meet Corliss Archer" starring Janet Waldo, voice of Judy Jetson, Penelope Pitstop and Hanna-Barbera's Alice in Wonderland. It was later adapted into a TV series,

Darryl Hickman, who plays Dexter Franklin, played Raymond Pringle in the previous film, Kiss and Tell (1945). Robert Ellis, who plays Raymond Pringle, later played Dexter Franklin in the TV series Meet Corliss Archer (1954).
