- CuriosidadesUnknown to anyone but those close to him, Dick Van Dyke had been struggling with a real-life drinking problem for several years prior to making this movie. Before filming began, he decided to tell director Richard Heffron about his struggles. As a result, while filming, Heffron would lay out scenes, then tell Van Dyke, "you know more about this than I do, so just do it the way you see it, the way you feel it." Just before the movie aired, Van Dyke decided to go public with his alcoholism struggles, becoming one of the first entertainment figures to go public about a drinking problem. He received thousands of letters of support.

Rudy King: [after Charlie has attended an important meeting while hung over] I'm not going to mince words, Charlie. We've known each other too long for that. You were a disgrace this morning; I can still smell the liquor on your breath. I don't know how many of those men knew you were hung over, but I certainly did.

I also saw this tv movie only once during its original airing. I was only 10 years old at the time. I regret to say that much of the content has since faded from memory. But don't think that has any reflection on the movie, only my memory! To this day I have not forgotten the impact that Dick Van Dyke's performance had on me. His portrayal of an alcoholic steadily descending into the deep abyss of his disease has stayed with me for almost thirty years. My first exposure to this illness came with this film. And it haunts me to this day. Not to mention the fact that I not once since seeing this movie have I been able to listen to the Beatles' 'Yesterday' without feeling a small jab in my heart because of it.
