Curiosidades

Rafter Romance is an American 1933 pre-Code romantic comedy film directed by William A. Seiter and released by RKO Radio Pictures. The film, which was based on the 1932 novel of the same name by John Wells, stars Ginger Rogers, Norman Foster and George Sidney, and features Robert Benchley, Laura Hope Crews and Guinn Williams.

Production

Production on Rafter Romance began in mid-June 1933. RKO initially announced that Joel McCrea and Dorothy Jordan would star in the film, and then paired Lew Ayres with Ginger Rogers, before casting Norman Foster as the male lead. Foster and Rogers had been teamed before on Young Man of Manhattan in 1930, and also made Professional Sweetheart together earlier in 1933.

Four years after the release of Rafter Romance, producer Merian C. Cooper re-made it as Living on Love, with James Dunn and Whitney Bourne, also for RKO. The plots of other films, including the German film Ich bei Tag und du bei Nacht (1932), the French film A Moi le jour, à toi nuit (1932) and the British Early to Bed (1933) have similarities to Rafter Romance, but are actually based on a completely separate screenplay by Robert Liebmann and Ján…

Merian C. Cooper accused RKO of not paying him all the money contractually due for the films he produced in the 1930s. A settlement was reached in 1946, giving Cooper complete ownership of six RKO titles:
