I wonder if the Music Hall didn’t want this film after presenting all the other A and R films not finding it up to snuff.

Industry was suffering a severe product shortage at the time. Joseph Vogel, head of the theatre division of Loew’s Inc., demanded that MGM book the much-anticipated Astaire-Rogers reunion into its own State Theatre rather than RCMH.

I always wondered why it didn’t play the Hall. It seemed like a no brainer.
