- PatzerThe background footage of the 59th Street Bridge used in Godfrey's office is from the opposite side of the river to the footage used for the outdoor scenes at "The Dump".
- Crazy CreditsThe opening credits features a darkened city skyline and the names of the cast and crew appear as the camera pans across lighted billboards and neon signs.

Ausgewählte Rezension
A scavenger hunt amongst the rich leads two competitive sisters to the local dump where one has the idea to bring back one of the "lost men". She offers Godfrey $5 to come with her, Godfrey played by the fabulous William Powell doesn't take it very well and shoves her into an ash heap. The younger much sweeter sister, Irene, strikes up a conversation with Godfrey and explains about the scavenger hunt etc and he goes with her in order for her to beat her sister Cornelia for nothing.
After winning, Irene suggests that since he helped her by doing a favor that she would like to help him in some way...he says the only thing he needs is a job. She hires him on the spot to be her family's butler.
This is how Godfrey ends up in the home of the most screwball rich family I have ever seen...with Cornelia taking stabs at him and trying to get him fired and Irene wanting him to be her protégé...and eventual love interest.
"My family came over on the boat...oh, not the mayflower, but the one after that."-mom
"I wouldn't say anything behind your back that I wouldn't say in public."-Mom
As it turns out Godfrey has a mysterious past including being a Yale man, he was a "Park" of the Parks of Boston.
"I'm sorry boys, I want to apologize for my family, they are slightly hysterical!"-Dad
"The village of forgotten men."-Godfrey
"If I end up in jail it will be the first peace I have had in years."-Dad
This is a wonderful film with a superb cast, gorgeous sets, luxurious costumes and a fabulous ending! This is a worthwhile film and really highlights 1930's screwball comedy.
"Stand still Godfrey, it will all be over in a minute."-Irene.
