Curiosidades

Delightfully Dangerous is a 1945 American musical comedy film directed by Arthur Lubin showcasing teenage singer Jane Powell—in her second film on loan out to United Artists from MGM—and orchestra leader Morton Gould. The working titles of this film were Cinderella Goes to War, Reaching for the Stars and High Among the Stars. It was Frank Tashlin's first writing credit on a live action feature film.

Production

The film was known as Reach Among the Stars then High Among the Stars. Jane Powell was borrowed from MGM to star; it was only her second film. In July 1944 Arthur Lubin was borrowed from Universal to direct. Brian Aherne and Susan Hayward were announced as her co stars. In August it was announced that Aherne and Hayward would be replaced by Ralph Bellamy and Constance Moore.

In October 1944 the title was changed from High Among the Stars to Delightfully Dangerous. Jane Powell wrote in her memoirs that Ralph Bellamy "said time and time again, 'That was the worst movie I ever made.' And I'm inclined to agree... I didn't know it wasn't a good film. I had a good time making it." Powell says Morton Gould was "miserable" during filming because he had never made a movie before and was very self conscious.
