Trivia | PRC Studio's didn't garner many (if any) Oscar nominations, but did get one for the Paul Francis Webster, Harry Revel-penned; Remember Me to Carolina. Composer, Walter Donaldson, who wrote; Did I Remember, for the Jean Harlow film, Suzy (1936) thought the tunes were too similar. He sued for plagiarism, with the dispute settled out of court.
