Actress Jean Harlow died on the set of the filmSaratoga(1937), after which filming was halted. It was decided that the film, 90% completed, would be finished using a body double(Mary Dees) for Harlow, however Dees's speaking voice was higher than that of Harlow. Winslowe stepped in as a voice double, and the film was released to great success.
