Director George Sidney was so taken with the talent of Ann-Margret that when the film was edited he went to Columbia's executives and proposed the opening and closing bumpers that would showcase her. They refused to pay for any additional filming, so Sidney rented the studio and crew at his own expense. He then asked the composer and lyricist to come up with a title song. And Ann-Margret became a sensation.

Jesse Pearson plays the role of teen idol Conrad Birdie, whose character name is a word play on country singer Conway Twitty , who was, at that time, a teen idol pop artist. The film was Van Dyke's feature film debut and helped make Ann-Margret a superstar during the mids.
