Curiosidades
The music was played by pianist Carmen Cavallaro in his own style. He had a completely different, and more technically precise, style of playing than Eddy Duchin had. The orchestral arrangements and style of playing are also anachronistic - Cavallaro's of the 1950s versus Duchin's, typical of the late 1920s and early 1930s. (Duchin's orchestra also included a tuba and banjo). If you listen to recordings by both, this is clearly evident.

Pifias
Eddy Duchin suffered from acute myelogenous leukemia. This blood disease would not have created the hand paralysis shown in the movie. The paralysis was done for dramatic effect. Eddy Duchin died at Memorial Hospital in New York City on February 9, 1951. He was 41.

Citas
Eddy Duchin: What I want to know is why! Why do they have to destroy a man twice? You work and work and just when you get... everything. When it gets too good they take it away.
Eddy Duchin: Oh Chiquita, I don't want to die. I don't.

It's the music, after all!

The "Eddy Duchin Story" was one of the nicest movies to ever come out of Hollywood. I remember my father taking my mother to see it at least half dozen times. Reason? The music.

For a number of years we had the old soundtrack LP around and if anyone knows where I can get a copy of this on either CD or cassette, I would be eternally grateful for the information.

If I were a critic (and I have yet to have anyone adequately tell me how one goes about becoming one), I would not be so cavalier in dispatching this movie as a contrivance. If you do, you miss the point - the music.

Lights!
