Perfectly dreadful

Charles Bronson stars as an American author in his thirties living in England who marries his 16 year old girlfriend Susan George. They move to NYC and suffer through the shocking predicament that people don't understand their relationship and that they don't really get along all that well anyway. A fantastic supporting cast ... Honor Blackman, Jack Hawkins, Trevor Howard, Robert Morley ... are consistently wasted in this really annoying comedy. I usually love George, but she is nails- on-a-chalkboard annoying here.

Trivia
According to an interview with Richard Donner, he was reportedly asked by Charles Bronson if he wanted to direct the film, and was delivered a script, read it and thought it was interesting and eventually directed it. However, Donner felt he was still not experienced enough to direct a film, nor did he did get along with Bronson at all, as they thought differently about how the film should have been.

Quotes
Twinky: [tearfully] I made him! I wanted to! We're in love!

Alternate versions
To receive an 'A' certificate the UK cinema version was cut by the BBFC to remove some sex references in Twinky's diary and dialogue mentioning the Pagoda Position. The 1989 video featured the same cut cinema version though both later DVD releases were shorter re-edited prints. The 2001 Delta DVD featured the U.S print (known as "Lola") and the 2006 Orbit release (once again titled "Twinky") restored the original cinema cut scenes.
