Trivia | A rare nasty role for Spring Byington (Carrie Jannings). See more » |
Goofs | The call letters of the radio station that broadcasts the operetta from the fictional small town in Illinois were, in 1947, really the call letters of a radio station in New York City. It's highly unlikely that an Eastern metropolis would broadcast a high school musical from a Midwestern town. See more » |
