Trivia:
Walter Catlett's nightclub in the film, the "Cafe Kohinoor", evidently derives its name from the fabulous Kohinoor diamond which was in the news some decades ago. Writer Thackrey and director LaCava must have liked a name signifying ostentatious wealth and glamour. more

Every star has a list of movies they'd rather not have made, and I would guess this movie is one of Irene Dunne's. She did a good job in it, and the plot wasn't as inprobable as many movies on the market today. But the movie is dated in many ways: Small town girl goes to big city; falls for the first smooth-talker she meets; marries somebody else on the rebound; eventually falls deeply in love with him; everybody lives happily ever-after. If Irene Dunne weren't in it, this movie would have little to commend it. But she adds luster to practically everything she ever made. This is a film worth watching because it has its comic moments. And after all - it has Irene Dunne.
