After shooting the scene when Virginia cries hysterically to her mother in her bedroom, Shirley Booth was pleasantly surprised with Shirley MacLaine's emotional performance. She asked her, "where did that come from?! I'm impressed!", much to MacLaine's delight as she admired Booth very much.
In an early scene in the kitchen, Shirley MacLaine's character (while she's ironing) uses the term "LSMFT" as a reference to tobacco. That was an advertising slogan at the time: "Lucky Strike Means Fine Tobacco."
Used as the 'movie in the cemetery' in Valentines Day; referencing Shirley MacLaine's character as the actress in this movie
The film cast includes four Oscar winners: Shirley Booth, Anthony Quinn, Shirley MacLaine and Eileen Heckart.
