Quiz
The stop-motion animation used in creating the illusion of a dancing squirrel (Rupert) was so realistic that producer George Pal received many inquiries as to where he got a squirrel that was trained to dance.

Blooper
As Rosalinda and Pete are walking along the city sidewalk, the reflection of the camera is visible in the shop windows.

Citazioni
Mr. Louie Amendola: [fleeing fire] The polar bear rug with the radio inside! I'll miss the Jimmy Durante show!

Cute and quirky -- great for young kids.

An odd little movie with a nice "b" cast (Besides Durante, there's Tom Drake from "Meet Me in St. Louis," Terry Moore from "Mighty Joe Young") and a truly original comic plot-twist as the premise. A cute puppet squirrel makes this a fun movie for young children, and I recommend it for the parents too, if you like obscure old movies -- you really can't predict where this story is headed.
