To celebrate the arrival of a New Year, this was a total replacement for the Christmas stage/screen offering, which ran for two weeks only with the Grace Moore-Melvyn Douglas musical comedy, “I’ll Take Romance,” as the film.
Interesting that a few times in the 30s up until the very early 40s a Christmas film didn’t make it to the New Years holiday. I wonder if it was because the Christmas film was a disappointment in terms of attendance or they just wanted a new film. The very first Christmas film made both holidays. I believe Babes on Broadway(for some reason the only Garland/ Rooney to play the Hall) and Philadelphia Story were the last New Years' films and huge hits. Or did H.M.Pulhman Esq. also not make New Years?
I saw Carnovsky 40 years later in King Lear in CT. And amazingly Colbert a few times on Broadway.
