TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Anouk Aimée (Justine) couldn't bear being without her lover and future husband Albert Finney during location shooting and wanted to leave. Director George Cukor persuaded her friend Omar Sharif to convince her of the dire consequences for her career if she did. Although Sharif failed, Finney was able to convince her to finish this movie.

Joseph L. Mankiewicz was working on the screenplay when he was approached to take over Cleopatra (1963) in 1961.

This was the last theatrical movie to be photographed by Leon Shamroy, and his only collaboration with Director George Cukor.

Walter Wanger had hoped to re-team with his Cleopatra (1963) star Dame Elizabeth Taylor when he first announced this in 1964. Darryl F. Zanuck had also wanted his then girlfriend Irina Demick to co-star.

Joseph Strick was originally hired to direct but was fired after refusing to cast anyone but Glenda Jackson in the lead role. He was replaced by George Cukor.

Popular Dialogues

"Pursewarden: [to Justine] When the hell are you going to stop being an old sin-cushion - into which we all have to thrust our rusty pins!"

"Darley: [last line of film] I won't forgive her, but I won't forget her, either. I don't want to."
