The Night On Bald Mountain sequence was cut from the film when originally released on video. When the sequence was shown in 1940 the studio was overrun with calls and letters from parents who complained that the sequence scared their children. It has since been restored to its original place in the film on subsequent home video releases.

During the scene where James Stewart hiccups when drunk, you can see Cary Grant looking down and grinning. Since the hiccup wasn't scripted, Grant was on the verge of breaking out laughing and had to compose himself quickly. Stewart (apparently spontaneously) thought of hiccuping in the drunk scene, without telling Grant. When he began hiccuping, Grant turned to Stewart, saying, "Excuse me." Grant turned his head to stifle his laughter and said, "Nothing". The scene required only one take.

What you said? I...uh recognise that beauty and delicacy of the relationship you described... I... um don't trust myself. I'm afraid I'm a lot bolder than you are, Oddly. You don't think that would necessarily endanger everything, do you? At the very idea that I should... have to spend my honeymoon watching her paint in watercolours just because she likes somebody from the Buttercup family. I... I'm a man in love. It's the first time in my life... I want to take her in my arms. I thought because I was young, I had self-control but that's not true. I think of her, every waking moment. Why, if this marriage had been delayed, I mean it should have been delayed. I mean... should be. Listen to that, I don't know my tenses anymore. I've gone goofy! Completely goofy! Bin Buggy! Slap Happy! Can a man like that keep his mind on the enema neurosis? Pottsie!

Historians have called the way the wind plays with O'Hara's veil when she leaves the church after her wedding a stroke of luck for John Ford. Far from it, he had instructed the crew to set up wind machines to fan the veil into a perfect circle behind her head then blow it straight up into the air.x
