- QuizWhen Doris Day's character is questioned by reporters about an affair she's supposedly having with S.Z. Sakall's character, one of them asks her, "Is it true you call him 'Cuddles'?" This is an inside joke, as Sakall's nickname in real life was "Cuddles".

Recensione in evidenza
If you love Fifties movie-musicals that stress music over story, "Lullaby of Broadway" is the prototype. It takes moviemaking back to the Astaire-Rogers films, which highlighted dancing, music, and wisecracking dialogue. "Lullaby" isn't quite "Top Hat", but it does represent a trend where old, sentimental hit tunes are given updated arrangements and settings.
In her autobiography, "Doris Day: Her Own Story" (published in 1976), the actress describes her early years as a contract player for Jack Warner and the heated disputes she had with the autocratic movie czar over miscasting and bad scripts. But in "Lullaby," there is virtually no script to complain about. It's mainly a revue. But what a revue! From Ray Heindorf's jazzy rendition of the old title tune (from "Gold Diggers of 1935") over the opening credits to the end, this movie clicks along in high gear from one showstopper to the next.
Day also recalled in her memoirs that "Lullaby" contained, by far, the toughest dance routines of any film she ever made. One especially challenging scene called for her to perform an intricate series of steps on a huge staircase while weighed down in a gold-lame dress. At first, she balked, warning the crew to have an ambulance waiting after the first take. With encouragement from the director David Butler and others, however, she managed to complete the number.
"Lullaby of Broadway" is not the best of the Day/Warners musicals--that distinction goes to "Calamity Jane" (1953)--but it's as good as the rest. With Gene Nelson as Day's love interest, Billy De Wolfe as a vaudevillian-turned-valet, and S. Z. Sakall as a Broadway "angel."
