TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

When Cahiers du Cinéma requested statements from a selection of auteur filmmakers from around the world for inclusion in the magazine, Howard Hawks simply sent a production still from Man's Favorite Sport of Rock Hudson up to his neck in the lake with no explanation.

Cary Grant turned down the lead role because he was 58 and the leading lady Paula Prentiss was only 24.

Last film of Roscoe Karns.

Filming began late in 1962 but the movie was not released until 1964.

Hawks wanted so much to have Paula Prentiss as his leading lady that he even considered to move the production to M-G-M, where she was under contract.

Popular Dialogues

"Roger Willoughby: Did you take a special course in blackmail, or is it just a natural talent?"

"John Screaming Eagle: As the great chief, Confucius, say... Roger Willoughby: Five birds in hand worth 20 who fly away. John Screaming Eagle: You knew him better than I did."
