    • Trivia
      It was agreed Cary Grant would keep all of his clothes on when he took a shower, as he was nearly sixty and slightly overweight. However, they then decided the scene was funnier that way.
    • Goofs
      The sign outside the embassy would not read "American Embassy." It would read "Embassy of the United States of America" or "Ambassade des États-Unis d'Amérique."
    • Quotes

      Reggie Lampert: Is there a Mrs. Cruikshank...?

      Adam Canfield: Yes.

      Reggie Lampert: But you're divorced.

      Adam Canfield: No...

      Reggie Lampert: [Regina's face falls] Oh.

      Adam Canfield: [Brian/Adam gets out his wallet to show her the picture] My mother, she lives in Detroit, you'd like her, she'd like you too.

    • Crazy credits
      During the last scene, the screen splits into a checkerboard screens showing their ending kiss along with Cary Grant's funniest scenes from the movie and "The End."
    • Alternate versions
      When first released, Hepburn's line "at any moment we could be assassinated" was dubbed over to become "at any moment we could be eliminated" due to the Kennedy assassination. Subsequent releases have "assassinated" restored to its place in the film.

    They Don't Make 'Em Like this Anymore
    Perfection! Truly funny with the two greatest stars to light up the screen and a terrific cast of supporting players. I watch this whenever I'm down in the dumps or need cheering up. (It's on tonight on TMC; don't miss it.) And those one liners! I can't imagine any stars today who could deliver such lines as "You know what's wrong with you? Absolutely nothing." There are a zillion such lines. And I don't think Audrey Hepburn ever co-starred with anyone who she didn't click with. Sean Connery, Humphrey Bogart, Peter O'Toole, Albert Finney.

    You can have sexual chemistry on the screen without showing it. Today, they would have these Reggie and Brian (et al.) in bed together.

    A wonderful movie!
