(at around 7 mins) When Anita Ekberg's character "Mamma Greta" dies, her gravestone displays her complete name as "Greta Gustafsson"--the real name of Greta Garbo.
First career nude scenes for Valeria Marini.
Because of the many scenes of sexual abuse, the film was R-rated, something that caused the ire of lead actress Valeria Marini, who asserted that she had been promised the cut of the three more explicit scenes and a ban for just people under 14 years. The actress therefore sued the producer Marco Poccioni demanding the immediate withdrawal of the film, but her request was eventually rejected.
Critics mostly hated the film but it was highly successful at the box office. It became the eighth highest-grossing Italian film of the year with a gross of 4.5 billion lira.
