Randolph Scott, Bob Burns, Jane Hale, Gypsy Rose Lee, Wanda McKay, Dinah Shore, and Charles Winninger in Belle of the Yukon (1944)

Trivia

Belle of the Yukon

Edit
Bob Burns was known for a bizarre musical instrument that he invented and which he plays in this film. It's basically a long tube with a cone on the end called a "bazooka." GIs in WW2 took this name for the rocket firing anti-tank weapon, since it resembled the instrument.
American Film Institute Catalog of Feature Films, 1941-1950, erroneously lists the release date as 1 January 1944, instead of the correct date of 1 January 1945.
The painting behind the bar is a rough interpretation of Bouguereau's "Nymphs and Satyr" that is in the collection of the Clark Art Institute of Williamstown, MA. It was in the Hoffman House at Broadway and 25th Street, hanging over the bar until 1901.
"The Screen Guild Theater" broadcast a 30-minute radio adaptation of the movie on February 12, 1945 with Dinah Shore, Randolph Scott and Bob Burns reprising their film roles.
According to a March 1944 Hollywood Reporter news item, showgirl Wesley Brent was hired to perform in the picture, but his participation in the released film has not been confirmed.
