Trivia:

He directed his second wife Louise Lasser in five films: What's Up, Tiger Lily? (1966), Take the Money and Run (1969), Bananas - minä ja vallankumous (1971), Mitä kaikkea oletkaan aina halunnut tietää seksistä, mutta et ole rohjennut kysyä (1972) and Muistelmia - Stardust Memories (1980). Only the first two were made during their marriage. See more »
