Interesting facts
Everything Happens at Night is a 1939 American drama-comedy film starring Sonja Henie, Ray Milland and Robert Cummings.
Production
In April 1939 Fox announced the film as part of its slate for the following year. It was based on an original screenplay and was a different type of Sonja Henie vehicle as the storyline was more serious. Richard Greene was originally announced for the role of the English reporter. Greene was delayed working on Little Old New York so Fox borrowed Robert Cummings from Universal.
Filming started in September. Gregory Ratoff had to direct some skating sequences because director Irving Cummins was pulled on to Johnny Apollo. Filming finished by October.
