Nellie: Mother says older men are better for a girl than young men.
Lt. Cable: This has been a discouraging day for me.
Question: Why was the "I'm Gonna Wash That Man" number severely hacked about for the film and is not the same as in the soundtrack recording?





Answer: The song was likely shortened to maintain the scene's brisk pace and keep the film's overall length to a certain running time. There were many other musical numbers and sequences in the movie.
