Eleanor Powell's last big-screen appearance - other than clips in compilation movies of the 1970s-90s ("That's Entertainment" and its successors) - was a cameo in this 1950 film. MGM had moved on from lavish tap dance productions to extravagant water ballets, with Esther Williams as their new female star. Eleanor spent the next few years leading an Emmy award-winning local religious show for children, while raising her son Peter. In the early 1960s, after her divorce from Glenn Ford, she made a very successful comeback as a nightclub entertainer, dancing as well or better than in her earlier days, according to the critics.
