14 years earlier, Claudette Colbert starred in the movie Imitation of Life (1934), with prominent scenes on a balcony with nearly the same view onto the Queensboro bridge. "Imitation of Life" was later remade into the more famous 1959 version by the director of "Sleep, My Love", Douglas Sirk.
"The Screen Guild Theater" broadcast a 30 minute radio adaptation of the movie on April 19, 1948 with Claudette Colbert reprising her film role.
