Note that James Stewart won the Best Actor Academy Award for this film and many feel it was to repay him for not winning the year before for Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, but that is especially ironic, because he was given the Oscar over Henry Fonda in The Grapes of Wrath, who surely deserved it! Also note that this movie was remade in 1955 as the musical High Society, with Bing Crosby, Grace Kelly, and Frank Sinatra in the lead roles. NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
