Facts about
Howard had only a rudimentary understanding of the violin. During closeups, he kept his hands by his side as violinists bowed and fingered the board. This same trick was performed by Isaac Stern and John Garfield a few years later in Humoresque. (Ingrid Bergman did have some knowledge of piano, and her fingering is correct.)
