Final leading role in a theatrical motion picture for Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder.
Originally set to take place in New York City. The movie prepped for two months and shot six weeks in New York City. On the last night of location filming, Peter Bogdanovich received a phone call from his agent at about midnight letting him know he was being replaced as director. After reviewing footage with the replacement director, it was determined that none of the New York City footage was usable, and the script was re-written to be shot entirely in Los Angeles.
On Gilbert Gottfried's podcast in 2016, Peter Bogdanovich describes how he and Gene Wilder didn't get along because Bogdanovich devoted most of his time and energy to Richard Pryor, who had MS. Though Bogdanovich claims the film had only been green-lit because he had got Pryor involved in the first place (the studio not wanting Wilder alone), he believes Wilder successfully campaigned to have him replaced with another director. Gottfried was cast in the Bogdanovich version, but was dropped from the film when it was reshot.
Maurice Phillips replaced Peter Bogdanovich as director. Bogdanovich worked on the picture for five weeks before being replaced.
The Spanish title translates to "Don't lie to me... because I'll believe you", a clear reference to the Spanish title of See No Evil, Hear No Evil (1989) which translates to "Don't shout at me, because I can't see you".
"Elaine: [Elaine undresses] Give it a whirl, Abe. George: Well, I like, I want to, I want to... Elaine: You want to say something to me? George: Yes, I do and I want to be completely honest and get this off your chest. I mine, get this off your breast. I mean, my breast. Get this, off my chest. Elaine: Give it a try."
"[Last line (after credits)] George: Don't ever call my friend a "shithead" again, OK?"
