- AnecdotesThe film was originally titled Once a Hero.
- GaffesDuring the robbery there is a tremendous rainstorm outside the bank. The gutter is a rushing river, and nearly everyone has an umbrella. Richard Dix wears a trenchcoat that is very wet. Yet inside the bank nobody carries an umbrella, wears a raincoat, or shows any sign of having been affected by the rain--several women even wear stylish hats that are not wet.

Tim Bart: Say, I'm mighty glad you're doin' so well, Pete.
Pete: Yeah, I'm doin' all right. Y'know, the other day I was on location with the Al Howard Company, and I even fed the stars. There was Jim Bagley and Gloria Gay and... that reminds me. She was askin' after you. She was asking me... where you been keepin' yourself, and why she hasn't seen you.
Tim Bart: How's she lookin'?
Pete: Sweller than ever. She's got one of them pooches that's got hair growing down all over his eyes. Pomegranates, I think they call 'em. Ha-ha, ha-ha...

So, in "It Happened in Hollywood" we meet Bing Crosby, played by an obscure lookalike actor whose real-life job was to stand in for the genuine Bing during all of Crosby's films. John Barrymore (Drew's grandfather) is played here by Barrymore's full-time double. Victor McLaglen is played by his own brother, who was his real-life stand-in. Marlene Dietrich and Garbo are played by their own stand-ins: real-life sisters named Dietrich (no relation to Marlene).
This gimmick wouldn't work nowadays, because movie stars no longer have long-term relationships with a single movie studio; consequently, they use a different stand-in for each film, and they don't maintain ongoing working relationships with a particular lookalike.
I'll rate "It Happened in Hollywood" 4 out of 10.
