`~John Doe~`
Edit cast list for:
White Christmas (1954)?
Trivia:
`~3603~` was a last-minute replacement for the originally cast `~17674~`. Third of three films to feature `~6653~` singing @#White Christmas#@. For The song @#Gee, I Wish I Was Back In The Army#@ there is a small section which say's "Jolson, Hope And Benny all for free" This is a reference to three wartime entertainers; `~Al Jolson~`, `~9102~` and `~8627~`. The original words were "Crosby, Hope and Jolson all for free", with `~6653~` in the film it would seem rather weird and it would most likely break the mood. `~6359~` did not actually sing any of the songs for the movie. `~Trudy Stevens~` sang all her songs (with the exception of the song @#Sisters#@, on which `~12612~` sang both parts). Vera's own voice is heard singing only in the "arrival in Pine Tree" scene at the railroad station where the quartet reprises the opening lines of @#Snow#@. The @#Sisters#@ comedy act that `~6653~` and `~3603~` perform was not originally in the script. They were clowning around on the set and the director thought it was so funny that it was written in. Even though Betty was the elder of the Haynes sisters, `~12612~` is actually seven years younger than `~6359~` in real life. A myth persists that all of `~6359~`'s costumes, down to her robe and sleepwear, were designed to cover her neck, which had been damaged by anorexia. This is untrue. Seeing her in the premiere footage for 1954's @%A Star Is Born%@, she is wearing a low cut gown and her neck is clearly visible. The Vermont inn is the remodeled Connecticut inn set from the movie !~holiday_inn~!~Holiday Inn~! which `~6653~` also starred in singing songs written by `~6652~`. The original idea was to reunite `~6654~` and `~6653~`, as they had been successful in !~holiday_inn~!~Holiday Inn~!. Astaire refused, as he had "retired" at the time, so the part was reworked for `~17674~`. O'Connor pulled out, and the part was reworked for `~3603~`. The photo that `~6359~` shows to `~6653~` and `~3603~` of her brother, Bennie, is actually a photo of `~6230~`.
