Released at a time when America had been fully involved in World War II for almost two years, this profoundly secular film about romance couched within entertainers’ desires took on new life with audiences who were looking beyond traditional values following their country’s involvement abroad.
However, it did not last long; being swiftly forgotten after release alongside other popular titles like “A Matter Of Faith” (1947) also dealt frankly with religious themes during wartime turmoil!
