    • Trivia
      Stella Stevens said during a 1994 interview that her character Nina was the total opposite of what she was. She said she was an introverted, bookish sort of person who wanted to learn to become a good writer and there she was playing a nymphomanic, which she was intrigued with. "Some of the most fun parts I've played have been nymphomanics. It was very risque at the time."

    Well Done Crime Drama
    Jeffrey Hunter and David Janssen give excellent performances in this crime caper. The real standout is Stella Stevens as Hunter's nagging, nymphomaniac drunk who drinks martinis out if a water pistol. She makes this movie a standout.
