    • Trivia
      Rock Hudson later said he had disliked the film and thought it was distasteful to make a comedy about death. He recalled, "Right from the start, I hated the script. I just didn't believe in that man for one minute. Making fun of death is difficult and dangerous. That scene where I went out and bought a plot for myself in the cemetery - to me it was completely distasteful."
    • Goofs
      As George is reading the newspaper during breakfast, the pages facing the camera change from shot to shot, even though he has already laid those sections down.
    • Quotes

      George Kimball: When a man's wife thinks he's having an affair, how can he convince her he's not?

      Arnold Nash: He can't.

      George Kimball: But I'm not having one!

      Arnold Nash: Doesn't make any difference.

      George Kimball: Isn't a man innocent until proven guilty?

      Arnold Nash: Look, you're dealing with your wife. You can forget the Constitution.

    Doris & Rock & Tony!!
    Doris Day, Rock Hudson and Tony Randall together make up a hilarious comedy trio. Rock Hudsons character is a hypocondriac (sp?) and mistakenly believes he is dying. He shares this news with Tony Randall's character and together plan his funeral and plan for Doris Day's character's future (She is his wife in the movie). Well scene after scene is so funny. I loved everything about the movie and it is one of my top 10 films of all times. I have it taped and watch it over and over. It is fantastic for a bad mood day, it will perk you right up!
