Trivia
INSIDE JOKE: Shortly after Maria Corvier (Cyd Charisse) storms off, a man tells her assistant that he would like to meet her and is told that he is out of luck. The man is played by Tony Martin, Charisse's real-life husband.

Goofs
When Chuck Rodwell (Dan Dailey) drives to his ranch, he exits his car and opens the driveway gate. He drives into the ranch without closing the gate, but cattle are loose, which he drives past and would walk out the open gate to wander off.

This is not a Goof but simply shows that Rodwell is absent-minded, careless, or simply an inconsiderate jerk.

Quotes

No one can dance like Cyd Charise. Her grace is captivating. It's like watching a ballet. Her technique is purely her own style. She was ahead of her time with her routines. I recommend this movie for anyone who enjoys watching colorful costumes and playful, entertaining dancers.
