After this black-and-white production finished, Twentieth Century-Fox would implement the policy of utilizing Technicolor for all future Betty Grable features. The only monochromatic exception would be her guest spot in Four Jills in a Jeep (1944), crooning the standard from 1908, "Cuddle Up a Little Closer" (music by Karl Hoschna, lyrics by Otto A. Harbach, which she already had performed the year before in the Technicolored L'isola delle sirene (1943). Miss Grable would not exempt from the Technicolor clause two black-and-white dramas offered her: Il filo del rasoio (1946) (Anne Baxter's Oscar-winning part) and Mano pericolosa (1953) (the Jean Peters role). For Betty's final picture, Scandalo al collegio (1955), Color by DeLuxe was employed.
