* HilariousInHindsight: In the 1945 version, Emily compliments Wayne on his singing voice, and he tells her "I'm just an old glee club boy." Many modern day viewers would instantly think of Series/Glee. Not helped by the fact that Dick Haymes is apparently supposed to be a teenager or young adult, yet if so is even more subject to DawsonCasting than the actors in that show.

* FightSceneFailure: When Wayne "punches" someone else in the 1945 version, it looks pretty obvious that his fist doesn't actually touch the other person's face.
