Trivia

'Ann Rutherford' (I)'s first film. She got the part after actress Anne Darling walked off the film and out of her contract to marry an insurance executive. At the time, Ann Rutherford was performing on a Los Angeles radio show. A producer at Mascot Pictures saw Rutherford's picture in the paper and thought she looked enough like Anne Darling that casting her would enable the studio to complete the movie. See more »
