Trivia:

Shot at the same time as a French-language version, _Nous irons à Monte Carlo (1952)_. Audrey Hepburn is one of the only cast members to appear in both films. It was during the filming of this movie that Hepburn met Colette, who recommended her for a stage version of her novel, "Gigi." This led directly to her being cast in Roman Holiday (1953).
