Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe scene in which Susan Gallagher (Judy Garland) auditions for the Ziegfeld Follies is strikingly similar to Garland's own audition for MGM in 1935. Like her character, Garland came in with her father (Frank Gumm) as her accompanist and was flopping until Roger Edens, like Slayton (Paul Kelly) in the film, took over the audition, coached her to sing more softly and subtly, and got her the MGM contract.
- GoofsThough the movie takes place in the 1920s, the clothes are clearly from the early 1940s.
- Quotes
Jimmy Walters: Soon as I saw you, I said to myself, that's a hot lookin' little number.
Sheila 'Red': Don't let it throw ya champ. I'm 20 degrees cooler than you think.
Jimmy Walters: Ah, one of them refrigerated dames, huh?
Sheila 'Red': That's right. You're not the guy to defrost me either.

Featured review
My grandparents saw the original Ziegfeld Follies back in the old days and always raved about the showmanship and glamour that was demonstrated. Both the Great Ziegfeld from the mid-1930's and this film give some depth and insight into the days of the glorification of women. "You Stepped Out of A Dream" had more beautiful women in one production number than I have ever seen and probably will ever see. Oh, to have lived when the Ziegfeld shows were popular. And who can even begin to approach the beauty of Hedy Lamarr!
