Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIn the scene where a parrot flies into Sara's room off of Ram Dass' (Cesar Romero) shoulder, originally a small monkey was to be used. However, the monkey did not seem to like Shirley Temple and kept trying to bite her, so it was replaced by a parrot.
- GoofsThere are many references in the film to receiving "mail" and "mailing" letters. The British terminology is always receiving "post" and "posting" letters.

Music by Samuel Pokrass
Words by Walter Bullock
Performed by Shirley Temple, Arthur Treacher, Mary Nash,
Cesar Romero, Anita Louise, Richard Greene, and unidentified extras.
Danced by Temple with unidentified ballerinas
Temple also pulls off the "the princess and the pauper" (one implied title of the movie) class switch well. Excellent character actors and actresses support.
I think a good movie for young people to watch.
