Wissenswertes
This film closely resembles the life of entertainer Fanny Brice, and Alice Faye even sings Brice's signature song, "My Man" in the film. According to Alice Faye: The Star Next Door (1996), Brice and her second husband, Nicky Arnstein, sued 20th Century Fox for $750,000. The studio benefited from the publicity generated by the lawsuit - the film became the highest grossing musical of 1939 - and eventually settled out of court with both: Arnstein accepted $25,000, while Brice demanded considerably more and agreed to an undisclosed amount.

Zitate
Barton Dewitt Clinton: You know, I wish you were in some kind of trouble.
Rose Sargent: But why?
Barton Dewitt Clinton: Just so that I could get you out of it.

Alternative Versionen
They cut out Alice Faye singing "Chasing Rainbows" from the film, but it is on the DVD.

A great musical; Faye and Jolson are in great voice.

Very entertaining- a thinly disguised bio-pic of Fanny Brice. Power and Faye- at their acting peaks- are great as the leads. Faye is in great voice. However, Jolson steals the movie. At the age of 54, he was in the best voice of his career. His Rock- a Bye and California Here I Come are thrilling. I own the video, which also contains clips of several Jolson and Faye songs which were edited out of the final movie. a must for fans of the three stars.
