Trivia
The original ending of the movie just had Mary Grey leaving the Borden House, walking down Fifth Avenue, but the sneak preview audience complained at what it considered an unhappy ending. So the ending was changed to its current form, which essentially made it more palatable.

Goofs
When Mrs. Borden walks toward her daughter after consulting with Dr. Kessler, the daughter has her arms in front of her with the hands interlocked. But on the following cut, the arms are now behind her with the hands interlocked.

Quotes
Mr. Borden: Well, Michael, there seems to be a touch of spring in the air.
Mike: Yes sir, that's something even the poor people can enjoy.

Crazy credits
The opening credits are on street-sign like sign boards attached to the street light posts in New York City.

Fun, Witty, and Timeless

This film is one of my favorites, with a charming cast and fabulous characters. Ginger Rogers plays her trademark sassy and street-smart heroine effortlessly. Other standout performances are by the hapless and bewildered Walter Connolly and the often hysterical Verree Teasdale. Their children are well portrayed also, and Tim Holt has become one of my favorite actors, though he was largely undervalued throughout his career. A refreshing comedy about life and success, no matter what side of the tracks you come from.
