Trivia
This film received just one Academy Award nomination, for Best Original Screenplay. When it won the award, eyebrows were raised, because it was generally acknowledged that this movie was an unofficial retread of an earlier MGM film, La femme de l'année (1942).

Goofs
While visiting Marineland, bottlenose dolphins are incorrectly referred to as porpoises, both by Mike and by the off-screen announcer of the dolphin show.

Quotes
Mike Hagen: [narration] Liquor, I've found, makes me very smart sometimes.

Crazy credits
As 'The End' appears on the screen, Maxie Stultz delivers the final line of the movie while punching a 'speed bag' in a boxing gym: "I'm making a comeback, you know?"

Very Enjoyable

Cute and charming movie. Bacall and Peck have great chemistry as a newlywed couple who have more differences than they think starting out together. Bacall is funny and chic in her gorgeous gowns by Helen Rose and Peck is funny and charming as a gruff sports writer. This is a true gem.
