      • Trivia
        Marion Kracht was 16 during filming including a topless shower scene. But in a 2017 interview, she said she wasn't nude in this film and couldn't have been because her parents would never have allowed it. Yet the scene does exist.
      • Goofs
        The film takes place in the 1950s, yet the girls dance and hula-hoop to a 1968 recording of Bill Haley's "Rock-a-Beatin' Boogie."
