Final theatrical movie of William Holden (Tim Culley). Shortly after completing this movie, he slipped and fell in his living room, cutting his head open, and bled to death. He had been drinking heavily.
For the scene where Dame Julie Andrews bares her breasts, Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (1962) thanked her for "showing us that the hills were still alive", referencing her famous song lyric from The Sound of Music (1965).
When Blake Edwards had his name removed from the writing credits of City Heat (1984), he got himself billed under the pseudonym of "Sam O. Brown", whose initials are S.O.B.
This movie was based loosely on writer, producer, and director Blake Edwards' experiences making Darling Lili (1970) and Wild Rovers (1971).
The "S.O.B." title stands for "Standard Operational Bullshit". The acronym is often taken to mean and refer to misinformation being the norm. it is also a play on the acronym S.O.P. which means ''Stand Operating Procedures''. Some movie posters for the film featured as a tagline explanation under the ''S.O.B.'' title the wording: (Standard Operational Bull . . . !). One of the acronym's other meanings, the more common "son of a bitch" or "sonofabitch", was often believed by the public to be the meaning of the movie's title. In fact, a French movie poster for the film featured under the picture's ''S.O.B.'' title the wording ''Son-of-a-Bitch''.

Lila: No, I used to be a junkie. Dr. Irving Finegarten: Would it endanger your amateur standing if I asked you to use a sterilized needle? Lila: You're the doctor. Dr. Irving Finegarten: Oh, that's the nicest thing anyone's said to me all week."
"Dr. Irving Finegarten: Hello Polly. Polly Reed: Irving! Dr. Irving Finegarten: You look like an anemic turtle. Polly Reed: You're gonna let that SHYSTER on? Dr. Irving Finegarten: I could sue you for calling me that, Polly! A shyster is a disreputable lawyer. I'M a QUACK!"
