Wissenswertes
It originally was intended by director Stanley Donen that Cary Grant would play the part of "Delacro", the American tourist, whilst Rex Harrison and his real-life wife Kay Kendall were cast as "Victor Rhyall" and "Hattie", respectively. But Kendall died soon after completing an earlier Donen film, Noch einmal mit Gefühl (1960), and Harrison dropped out of the film because of this. Grant agreed to play Victor instead of Delacro, and both Rock Hudson and Charlton Heston were approached about playing the American character. Both refused, and Robert Mitchum was cast quite late in the proceedings, making no fuss at all about taking third-billing. Grant often claimed this had "saved the film" and praised his performance highly.

Patzer
When Victor and Charles play billiards, they use straight-rail billiard balls (two white, one red) on a table with pockets (on which 9, 10, or 15 balls, plus a cue ball, are used).

Zitate
Victor Rhyall: Sellers, have you seen my Bible?
Trevor Sellers: I'm afraid I've got it. I wanted to look something up.
Victor Rhyall: First you borrow my Times, now you pinch my Bible. That's democracy running amok!
Trevor Sellers: I'm extremely sorry, my lord. I'll put it back beside your bed.
Victor Rhyall: Anyway, you should have a Bible of your own!
Trevor Sellers: Well, the one you're using is mine, my lord.

Crazy Credits
Babies, some of them naked, on a lawn, are shown as if they were the cast and crew. For example, as the camera crew's names are shown, the babies are seen trying to work a camera; the "editor" is a baby tugging on a film strip, and so on.

Light entertainment worth viewing.

Most points have already been made - a sub Noel Cowardesque script but still stands up as light entertainment. (Maybe my age is showing). Supposedly set in the country but actually filmed at Osterley Park under the flight path to Heathrow airport!!! I am not sure that the outdoor shots could be filmed there today with all that noise! Anyway - it still looks good!

Google:- National Trust UK Osterley Park

I have some snaps of the livestock munching away in its the fields but I guess a herd of cattle, horses or a flock of water fowl looks much the same another somewhere else. Worth a trip if you have the time (but it sure costs a lot more than "a half-crown" nowadays!!!)
