Facts about The Gang's All Here
The production number "The Lady In The Tutti-Frutti Hat" ran into problems with the censors. The Hayes office at first considered the way the gigantic bananas were held in front of the dancers as being too "phallic". The problem was resolved by having the dancers hold the bananas at waist level rather than at hip level.
Linda Darnell was originally cast in the role of "Vivian." But her marriage to the much-older cinematographer J. Peverell Marley ran her afoul of studio head Darryl F. Zanuck, and she was put on suspension. Sheila Ryan replaced her in the role.
On loan from MGM, Busby Berkeley, directing and choreographing this Twentieth Century-Fox musical, was given his first opportunity to work using perfected, three-strip Technicolor. Thirteen years before, Mr. Berkeley had choreographed for producer Samuel Goldwyn the Eddie Cantor frolic, Whoopee!, shot in early Technicolor.
