- TriviaIn the original script, the Grauman's Chinese Theatre courtyard scene would have Linda Darnell and John Payne examine the foot imprints and whimsical messages in the cement of several deceased stars, including Marie Dressler, Douglas Fairbanks, and Jean Harlow, but the studio decided this would distress audiences, so those of Mary Pickford, Harold Lloyd, Tyrone Power, and Don Ameche are seen instead. [Philadelphia (PA) Inquirer, 8 June 1940]
