Anecdotes
Dana Andrews's singing voice was dubbed by radio singer and announcer Ben Gage, who at one time was married to Esther Williams. The studio was unaware that Andrews was a trained singer. He later explained that he didn't correct the oversight because he figured the ghost singer also needed to earn a living and he didn't want to deny his colleague employment. Ironically, despite his training, in a film career that lasted three decades, Andrews never displayed his singing voice on screen.

Gaffes
Several of the trees seen on the Frakes' property early in the film are recognizably eucalyptus trees, with their sparse leaves and white trunks. Eucalyptus trees grow easily in California and in similar climates (e.g., around the Mediterranean or in Australia), but would not survive the harsh winters in Iowa.

great fun

Not like the other R&H musicals - its ten years older, for a start. It has Jeanne Crain, young and pretty and as fluffy and fun as she was in Margie - and a more perfect fit for the other roles you would not find (Vivian Blaine in another great film musical role to rival Miss Adelaide, Dana Andrews (an odd choice but who else could you imagine?), Dick Haymes in great voice, Fay Bainter and her mincemeat, Charles Winniger and his prize pig). It is a gooey pleasure something similar to eating chocs when you know you really shouldn't ... highly recommended - great tunes. And avoid the remake with Pat Boone and Ann-Margret. No comparison. This is the one to watch - 56 and still fantastic.
