==Production== Contemporary sources report that [[Errol Flynn]] was originally cast as Felix, but dropped out because of illness. According to [[Turner Classic Movies|TCM]], Flynn was actually unhappy with the size of the part.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Four Daughters|url=https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/161/four-daughters#articles-reviews?articleId=17904|access-date=2021-07-23|website=Turner Classic Movies|language=en}}</ref> Modern sources indicate that Michael Curtiz wanted [[Burgess Meredith]] to play Mickey, but he was unavailable. Garfield modeled his performance on troubled pianist [[Oscar Levant]]. Garfield's characterization of Mickey in this, his first major film role, defined his screen personality for many future roles.<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|title=Four Daughters, Notes|url=https://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/title/161/four-daughters#notes|access-date=2021-07-23|website=Turner Classic Movies|language=en}}</ref> The [[classical music]] that plays a key part in the film is not identified and the composers are not credited on screen. The only onscreen credit is βMusic by [[Max Steiner]]β. Records credit [[Franz Schubert]] and his Serenade, which opens the film and is played again near the end. According to [[Turner Classic Movies|TCM.com]], [[Harry Warren]], Al Dubin, [[Allie Wrubel]], Elliot Grennard, [[Hugo Friedhofer]], [[Heinz Roemheld]] and [[Bernhard Kaun|Bernard Kaun]] contributed to the music. Max Rabinowitz composed "Mickey's Theme," and also played the piano off-screen during Garfield's performance. [[Ray Heindorf]] handled the orchestration.<ref name=":0" />
