- AnecdotesWhen this film was made, Catherine Deneuve and Marcello Mastroianni were a couple in real life and had just had a daughter, they having broken up a year later in 1974 when said daughter was two years old. Chiara Mastroianni, that daughter, has stated this film is the first of her parents' four films together during the time of their union that she ever watched.

Conseiller: Does he still believe in the tooth fairy?
Irène de Fontenoy: Yes. The tooth fairy, Santa, all that stuff.
Conseiller: I think brainwashing them like that is just ridiculous.
Clarisse de Saint-Clair, une cliente du salon: I agree. Filling kids' heads with stories about fairies, Santa, and God will turn them into nothing but half-wits.
Conseiller: I agree about the fairies and Santa, but not God. God exists, my dear.
Clarisse de Saint-Clair, une cliente du salon: That's a good one! You hear that Irène?
Irène de Fontenoy: I believe in it all. Everything astonishes me.
Clarisse de Saint-Clair, une cliente du salon: You're that gullible?
Irène de Fontenoy: I'm still a little girl inside.
- Versions alternativesThe movie has two very different endings. In the original French version, Marco was diagnosed with an hysterical pregnancy which saddens both him and Irène. As they finally get married Irène begins to feel sick and joyously tells Marco that she is pregnant. In the Italian ending, Marco realizes that he was misdiagnosed and suddenly goes into labor just before his wedding, though the baby is not shown. Afterwards, men everywhere suddenly begin having pregnancy symptoms.

Lyrics by Jacques Demy
Performed by Mireille Mathieu
Jacques Demy's dry satire has an increasingly big-bellied Mastroianni walking around with a befuddled expression, while the world spins slightly out of control around him. Everyone in picture takes the events very calmly and seriously, and everyone is mildly congratulatory towards the expectant father. The few jokes are mild and of the biter-bit variety and, except for the sequence when he gets involved in a campaign of clothing for pregnant men, there isn't much to this trifle.
Given the date of its release and the birth of his son, Mathieu, I suspect Demy started writing it when Agnes Varda offered some irritated comments on her pregnancy.
