Note that Myrna Loy's character was based on Amelia Earhart, who would tragically disappear on a solo flight three years later. Also note that this was Cary Grant's first pairing with Myrna Loy. They would not appear together again in the 1930s, but in the 1940s, they made two very memorable movies, "Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House" and "The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer", and one wishes they had made many more movies together!
