Interesting facts

They Just Had to Get Married is a 1932 American pre-Code comedy film directed by Edward Ludwig and starring Slim Summerville, ZaSu Pitts, Roland Young, and Verree Teasdale.

Production

The original title of this film was They Had to Get Married. However, the Hays Office disapproved of this title, and requested the addition of the word "just". They Just Had to Get Married was the third film version of Cyril Harcourt's 1914 play, A Pair of Silk Stockings. The first two were both silent films: a 1918 Lewis J. Selznick presentation also called A Pair of Silk Stockings, and a 1927 Universal film Silk Stockings.

The film premiered in San Diego, California on December 22, 1932, and went into general American release on January 5, 1933.
