Wissenswertes

Slightly Dangerous is a 1943 American screwball comedy film directed by Wesley Ruggles and starring Lana Turner, Robert Young, Walter Brennan, and Dame May Whitty. The film follows a bored young woman in a dead-end job who runs away to New York City and ends up impersonating the long-missing daughter of a millionaire. The screenplay was written by Charles Lederer and George Oppenheimer from a story by Aileen Hamilton.

Production

Slightly Dangerous was adapted from a story by Aileen Hamilton by screenwriters Charles Lederer and George Oppenheimer. The lead role of Peggy Evans was specifically written for Turner, "tailored to give her a career-defining moment." The project initially had the working titles Nothing Ventured and Careless Cinderella.

Principal photography of Slightly Dangerous took place between September and November 1942. Turner was pregnant with her daughter, Cheryl, at the time of production, but did not disclose the pregnancy until after production had wrapped in December 1942.

Buster Keaton served as an uncredited joke writer on the film, and is also alleged to have directed the scene in which Turner's character serves ice cream sundaes while blindfolded.
