Trivia
Screenwriter "Esther Dale" is a pseudonym for Elaine May. May did not want her real name to be credited when she wasn't directing. So, for this reason alone, she decided to use this pseudonym. She was rather annoyed with director Otto Preminger for revealing her identity when promoting the film, although he praised her work.

Quotes
Shakespeare Theatre in the Park: [talking to a musician for a Shakespeare production] The sitar is... it's interesting. But can you tell me what a sitar has to do with a play set in Denmark?

Crazy credits
In the film's opening, three red-colored "legs-crossed icons" (the trademark that Saul Bass created for the film, as seen on the poster) converge on a blank screen to form one whole icon. The title appears and then below the title, it reads "AN OTTO PREMINGER FILM". Cast and crew are credited in the closing, but nowhere else. Preminger was the only one credited in the opening.

Alternate versions
Some versions cut the intimate scene between Ken Howard and Dyan Cannon, in which Howard's character takes a faux nude picture of Cannon.

A not worth watching film by acclaimed director Otto Preminger.

It has only a couple of scenes that you'll remember and the plot is too slow. Otto Preminger may have done a good work with the actors in this film but this is not enough.

Even though it has no ambition either so ...
