The original green tint of the "lost continent" sequences was not reproduced for television prints of the film (the sequences were shown in black-and-white instead), and it was not until well over 30 years after the films initial release that the tint was restored for home video in the late 1980s.
b.
The dress that
Shirley Temple
wore during the "Baby, Take a Bow" number (a white organza with red polka-dots and a full skirt that became her trademark) was her own. Her mother, Gertrude Temple, thought that she would feel more comfortable wearing one of her own dresses, rather than one from the costume department.

The lighting changes when important events occur. For instance: When Scotty first sees Madeleine in Ernies restaurant, the light around her becomes unnaturally bright for a moment. While Scotty is listening to the story of Madeleines ancestor in the book shop, it gets very dark; once he exits the store, it brightens again.

Coppola was interested as he saw it as a bridge-building exercise between him and Ryder after she had inexplicably dropped out of
The Godfather: Part III
.

"The Screen Guild Theater" broadcast a 30 minute radio adaptation of the movie on August 13, 1945 with
