  • SIn response to DFDalton, I'm talking about the REAL Smith House on the REAL Kensington Avenue in the REAL St. Louis. The address in the book and film is the REAL address, the address of the boy next door was changed so lines in the song "The Boy Next Door" would rhyme. The St. Louis streets in the film were originally supposed to be the Andy Hardy streets dressed up but Vincente Minnelli wouldn't hear of it. The backgrounds in the trolley scene were of the New England street set.

  • @waynebrasler Not sure what you are talking about regarding the houses. The entire street used in the film was a set built at the MGM studios in Culver City, California.

  • First time I've seen the song staged without a trolley car (at the St. Louis Muny Theater a full-sized streetcar turns on stage). I thought the solution here was oh so clever and charming and fun. The talent here is excellent and the blocking is wonderful. I grew up in St. Louis and my dad DROVE that trolley (the Hodiamont line) which indeed did pass by Kensington Avenue. The Smith home is now gone but the boy next door's house is still there.

  • Hailey!!!!

  • Ding ding ding!!!
