TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Natalie Wood said that working on this film was "the most rewarding experience I had in all films, all the way around."

This was the first of seven collaborations between Natalie Wood and Edith Head. Head worked with her more than she did with any other star.

Film debut of Tom Bosley.

Unclear whether this is a bizarre coincidence or inside joke, but when the character played by Natalie Wood is taking a taxi home from the abortionist, it passes a large billboard mentioning New York Mayor Robert Wagner. Robert Wagner, of course, was also the name of Wood's former (and future) husband Robert Wagner.

The last day of filming was also the day Natalie Wood and then boyfriend Warren Beatty ended their two-year relationship.

Popular Dialogues

"Barbie: You know me in the cold weather - how I love to be in love. We are in love, aren't we? Really in love. Rocky Papasano: Yeah - you with yourself, and me with myself."

"Rocky Papasano: [about family] That's what makes it rough - when they love you."
