Trivia	Certain elements of Doris Day character's back story were lifted from Day's off-screen life at the time. Before being discovered by Warner stalwart Michael Curtiz and cast in her screen debut Romance on the High Seas (1948), Day had been a popular radio singer and recording artist. The subplot of her heartbreak at being separated from her young son in this film also reflected Day's true-life experience; while pursuing her career as a Big Band singer, Day had to leave her son Terry Melcher with his grandmother and rarely saw her child face-to-face. One of her first decisions after signing a 7-year contract with Warner was to move her son and mother to Burbank and establish a real home for her family. See more »
