    • Trivia
      Richard Burton: Uncredited, as man in a strip club. Burton appears with Peter O'Toole in a scene in a bar where Burton asks O'Toole, "Don't you know me from someplace?" O'Toole responds: "Give my regards to what's her name." The dialogue is a reference to their appearance together in Becket (1964), and to Burton's wife at the time, Elizabeth Taylor.

    A farce of a farce (except for the song)

    Even for a budding great movie writer and producer such as Woody Allen, this film fails to measure up to the lowest level of entertainment. Heavy, plodding script, patchwork scenes, a very loose plot. Generally, not worth the time spent in watching it. HOWEVER, the Oscar-nominated title song, by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, and as performed by the incomparable Tom Jones, makes it all worthwhile.
