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 crewmember. moreGoofs:
Revealing mistakes: The closeup of Harold's hand moving over Nancy's butterfly tattoo shows the top corner to be plainly reflective, with a clear irregular line visible outside the wing. moreSoundtrack:

I am so grateful, as an American Jew, that Peter Sellers agreed to play this role. He is the epitome of the regimented middle class Jewish boy, who came of age in those difficult times, know as the late sixties. He has one foot in the past, clinging to values, and one foot in the present, stuck in the mud. How Sellers captured this character so perfectly, down to the mannerisms and spot on accent, is beyond me. I know the history of Sellers, and his Jewish background. But he was English, and had spent little time in America. I can imagine Gene Wilder in this role, but it would not have been the same. This is a quintessential Jewish movie, to be seen on a double-bill with Bye,Bye, Braverman.
