Graças à Minha Boa Estrela

When Conrad Wiedell takes Bette Davis and does the jitterbug, she felt he was holding back in rehearsals and told him to treat her like an experienced dance partner. When the cameras rolled, Wiedell--a national jitterbug champion hired specifically for this dance--pulled out all the stops and swung her around and she fell on her knee. As she finishes her song, she is seen limping out of the nightclub set and leaning against a post, rubbing her knee. This was a real injury, but she finished the song despite the pain. When director David Butler asked Davis to "try it once more," she replied, "No! No! I said one take, and that was it." She then turned to the press who had shown up to watch her number, telling them "Show's over, gentlemen. Now get the hell out."

In one of the scenes, Eddie Cantor dressed as an American Indian, is being chased by other men dressed as American Indians, the film negative has been flipped; the signs on store windows are backward/mirror images.

At the end, the words "THE END" are sewn into the curtains.
