Count Stefan takes Jennifer on a walking tour of Warsaw. As they walk, stock footage is shown of various important monuments, culminating in the bronze statue of Chopin by sculptor Waclaw Szymanowski. These monuments were all systematically destroyed by the Germans in 1940.
The large bronze statue of Chopin that Jennifer and Count Stefan visit, was erected in Warsaw's Lazienki Park in 1926. It was destroyed by explosives on May 31, 1940 by the German occupiers. Fortunately, the statue's original mold survived the war and it was re-cast and replaced on its original site in 1958.
No mention is made in this film of the simultaneous invasion of Poland by the Soviet Union from the east. This was probably due to the fact they were part of the Allies' effort against Nazi Germany at the time of this film, after Germany invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941.
Two cast members in studio records/casting call lists did not appear or were not identifiable in the movie. These were (with their character names): Ivan Lebedeff (Cavalry Officer) and Faye Emerson (Friend of Count Orvid).
The film takes place from March to September 1939.
