Curiosidades

Bundle of Joy is a 1956 American Technicolor musical film directed by Norman Taurog and starring Eddie Fisher, Debbie Reynolds and Adolphe Menjou. It is a remake of the 1939 comedy film Bachelor Mother, which starred Ginger Rogers and David Niven, and was itself an English remake of the 1935 Austrian-Hungarian comedy film Little Mother.

Production

The original narrative of Bundle of Joy was produced by Joe Pasternak who had developed a winning formula in Universal Picture's Berlin division. His second picture with Henry Koster (director), Felix Jackson (writer), and Franciska Gaal (actress) was Kleine Mutti (Little Mother, 1935) about the orphan Marie who raises a foundling and ends up marrying a banker. The German-language film was remade in English as Bachelor Mother three years later.

RKO Studios had ceased production after Howard Hughes sold it. The new owners announced a program of 11 films costing $22,500,000; The First Travelling Saleslady, Back from Eternity, Tension at Table Rock, Beyond a Reasonable Doubt, Stage Struck, Bundle of Joy, A Farewell to Arms, Cash McCall, Misty, The Syndicate and Is This Our Son?. (Not all these films would be made by RKO and several were not made at all.)

Filming started in June 1956. It finished in August.

"I know I"m not an actor but I haven't had too much to worry about," said Fisher.

Carrie Fisher tells the story in her memoir and subsequent documentary film Wishful Drinking (2010) that Reynolds was pregnant with her during production of this film as well as Tammy and the Bachelor.
