Goofs:
Plot holes: Hal's knee is injured backstage during the last act of revue, forcing Bix to take his place in the big final number. Yet during the finale, Hal has recovered enough to perform the next-to-last reprise number, which is now climaxed by Bix's final number, which was originally to have been performed by Hal. Had Hal not been injured, how could he possibly have performed both numbers in the finale?

After acting with Kirk Douglas in 'Man with a Horn', the 26 year old Doris Day got to act alongside of Virginia Mayo in this film that shot her into the 1950's. Although I thought this film was dull, it did represent that she was on her way up.
