In this movie, Dame Elizabeth Taylor does an exaggerated impression of Bette Davis saying a line from Peccato (1949): "What a dump!" In an interview with Barbara Walters, Davis said that in that movie, she really did not deliver the line in such an exaggerated manner. She said it in a more subtle, low-key manner, but it has passed into legend that she said it the way Taylor delivered it in this movie. During the interview, the clip of Davis delivering the line from Beyond the Forest (1949) was shown to prove that Davis was correct. However, since people expected Davis to deliver the line the way Taylor had, she always opened her in-person, one woman show by saying the line in a campy, exaggerated manner: "WHAT...A...DUMP!!!" It always brought down the house. "I imitated the imitators", Davis said.
