With the passing of Alan Arkin recently, I thought I'd get this movie out of the library in his memory which I hope to review next. In this extra on the DVD, he and producer Mel Ferrer tell of their experiences making it especially concerning star Audrey Hepburn's performance. Ferrer was still married to her at the time and he recounts how his wife was never satisfied with her performances thinking she could have done better each time. Arkin himself considered it quite a challenge to terrorize such a lovely person on screen and his performance at the time puzzled some viewers. This was quite a fine tribute to both the film and Ms. Hepburn's performance. I should post a review of the actual movie sometime soon...
