Trivia

Goofs
The hairstyles of Jeanne Crain, Barbara Lawrence, and Lynn Bari are strictly 1946, although the story takes place in 1928.

Quotes
Grandma McSweeney: Margie, twenty years from now you'll look back at Johnny Green and you'll wonder what you ever saw in him.
Margie: Twenty years from now I'll be an old woman and it won't matter what I think.

Crazy credits
The opening credits appear as pages in a photo album with occasional annotated pasted photos of the characters from the film. A human hand flips the pages over.

A truly delightful movie!

It is a real shame that this film is not available on video. I taped it from AMC a while back for my mother, and later made another copy for myself. I've watched it often enough that I'm afraid the tape will wear out.

Jeanne Crain is terrific, as is the rest of the cast. The story is adorable, and one really feels for Margie in her teenage angst. All in all, it is a wonderful movie; one which I could watch over and over.
