Trivia After purchasing the rights to the book the film was based on, Lucille Ball became very close to the Beardsleys and even treated the whole family to a vacation at Disneyland. See more »
Goofs During their first date in a club, Frank is wearing his hat during the entire sequence. Wearing your cover (hat) indoors is a breach of military etiquette and a real Naval officer would know this. See more »

Quotes Colleen North: [as Helen is leaving for the hospital to have the baby] I know this is a terrible time to talk about it, but Larry says...
Frank Beardsley: I've got a message for Larry! You tell him *this* is what it's all about. This is the real happening. If you want to know what love really is, take a look around you.
Helen North: What are you two talking about?
Frank Beardsley: Take a good look at your mother.
Helen North: Not now!
Frank Beardsley: Yes, now.
Frank Beardsley: [to Colleen] It's giving life that counts. Until you're ready for it, all the rest is just a big fraud. All the crazy haircuts in the world won't keep it turning. Life isn't a love-in--it's the dishes, and the orthodontist, and the shoe repairman, and... ground round instead of roast beef. And I'll tell you something else: It isn't going to a bed with a man that proves you're in love with him; it's getting up in the morning and facing the drab, miserable, wonderful everyday world with him that counts!
[leaving the house, they say good-bye to the little kids]
Frank Beardsley: I suppose having 19 kids is carrying it a bit too far--but if we had it to do over, who would we skip? You?
Helen North: [getting into the car] Thank you, Frank. I never quite knew how to explain it to her.
Frank Beardsley: If we don't get you to the hospital fast, the rest of it's gonna be explained right here!
