This Gun in My Hand is perpetually set in 1939. Patsy Kelly’s next movie after 1939 was released in October 1940, The Hit Parade of 1941, also known as Romance and Rhythm. Her reputation was enough to get her listed on the posters for this film, and pictured on some of them.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hit_Parade_of_1941#/media/File:Hit_Parade_of_1941.jpg3.
