Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaAccording to director Mitchell Leisen, the role of Lee's mother was originally taken by Marjorie Main. After Main's performance proved to be far too broad and overdone, the scene was re-shot with Georgia Caine.
- GoofsThe street sign on the corner of the shop where Lee tries to pawn the stolen bracelet reads "3rd Avenue" and "West 54th Street" in NYC. With 3rd Avenue being east of Fifth Avenue, which divides east from west Manhattan, the street sign should read "East 54th Street."
- Alternate versionsThere is an Italian edition of this film on DVD, distributed by DNA srl, "CHRISTMAS IN CONNECTICUT (Il sergente e la signora, 1945) - New Widescreen Edition + RICORDA QUELLA NOTTE (1940)" (2 Films on a single DVD, with "Christmas in Connecticut" in double version 1.33:1 and 1.78:1), re-edited with the contribution of film historian Riccardo Cusin. This version is also available for streaming on some platforms.

Featured review
I will
"Remember the night" was the follow-up to "Midnight" in Leisen's filmography,and although the director substitutes melodrama for comedy the recurrent feature is the Cinderella syndrome :a false baroness in the latter,a thief in the former.
Whereas "midnight " was proof positive that money can't buy you love in a very funny way,"remember the night' is graver ,although very moving,a true story of redemption at Christmas time.
Fred McMurray is some kind of Prince Charming,but a prince who was not born silver spoon in hand :he had to work to pay his studies,he is a self made man his family is proud of.My favorite moments are the celebration of Christmas in the family home -a thing the girl never knew : mitigating circumstances-.This may be the moral of the tale:your do not have to come from a rich family provided this family cares for you and is a moral pillow.
Barbara Stanwyck and McMurray made a nice pairing that was used again. A wonderful movie for Christmas time ,like "it's a wonderful life" or " the shop around the corner"
