The author of the book upon which this film is based, Norton Juster, did not like this picture and was even angry that it received positive reviews. He had no input into the adaptation, and many characters that were in the book were not included in the film.
This film was actually made in 1967-8 but due to MGM's financial problems and frequently changing management, the film was not heavily promoted. When it was finally released in 1970, the studio only exhibited it for matinees on weekends for two weeks, and it was not a box office success.
MGM's first full-length animated film, and the last film the studio released to include live action and animation. MGM's animation studio closed soon after this film's release.
A demo recording of the song, "Noise, Noise, Beautiful Noise" (with different voices and musical arrangement) was used in two experimental pieces of computer animation, done on the ANIMAC system in 1968: "Beautiful Noise" and "The Dynne".
One of at least two movies in this era that was part live action and part cartoon, and where at least one of the characters appears in both the live action and cartoon worlds through some type of magical device (which in this movie was the tollbooth).
"Tock: [singing] Time is a gift, given to you, given to give you the time you need, the time you need to have the time of your life."
"Milo: That was a very beautiful sunset, sir. Chroma the Great: Why, thank you my boy. I've only been practicing since the world began, someday I'll get it just right, hmm?"
