Trivia
Director Hy Averback said in an interview that one day Peter Sellers refused to shoot a scene until a crew member standing off camera changed clothes. The superstitious Sellers claimed the outfit was the "wrong color". Shooting had to stop while they went to wardrobe and got a different color outfit for the crew member.

Goofs
Cops stop the psychedelic hippie hearse right in front of the same supermarket that is seen in background several miles back when they began pursuing vehicle in the opposite direction.

Quotes
Nancy: Your attitude is very unhip.
Harold: My attitude is unhip? Don't give me that. Don't - listen, I'm probably the hippest guy around here. I got a house full of strangers. I got cats, I got dogs, I got pot, I got acid, I got LSD cubes. I've got this thing here. Don't tell me about hip. I am so hip it hurts. That's how hip I am.
Nancy: It's very unhip to say you're hip, Harold.
Harold: And it's very unhip of you to tell me that I am unhip.

Mister Everyday joins the flower crowd

Entertaining film with lots of 60's memories like psychedelic cars, hip, cool, groovy lingo, long hair wigs, and, naturally....pot. Mr. Uptight just couldn't make up his mind whether he wanted to be a straight or be hip, which caused him to alienate himself from both circles. Fun and funny picture.
