    • Trivia
      On one particular day of filming, when it became apparent that Judy Garland was not fit to work, Gene Kelly reputedly feigned an injury of his own so that she would be able to take the day off. Kelly had remained devoted to Garland since she guided him through his paces in the making of his very first film, For Me and My Gal (1942).
    • Goofs
      When Abigail and Orville are rushing back to the farm, the backdrop is of an open road. When Abigail shouts for Orville to look out, the camera pans out to reveal that they were driving through a town.
    • Quotes

      Joe D. Ross: When the show's over and it's the success I hope it is, we've got alot of talking to do.

      Jane Falbury: What about?

      Joe D. Ross: Oh, all kinds of things. First I want to hear the story of your life. Everything that's ever happened to you since you were so high. And then I want to know what you eat for breakfast, what's your favorite color, what comic strips you read. Then we'll talk about shoes, and ships, and sealing wax, and shows. Farms. Families. Oh it may take hours. Weeks. Years. I want to know everything.
