TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

This became the first movie in Academy Awards and cinema history to be nominated for every Academy Award category in which it was eligible, including Best Adapted Screenplay (Ernest Lehman), Director (Mike Nichols), all of the acting categories (Richard Burton, Dame Elizabeth Taylor, George Segal and Sandy Dennis) and Picture of the Year (Ernest Lehman), since Cimarron (1931).

Every credited member of the cast received an Academy Award nomination.

Dame Elizabeth Taylor gained nearly thirty pounds to play the role of a middle-aged wife just for this movie.

Dame Elizabeth Taylor was only thirty-three when this movie was filmed in 1965, while her character Martha is supposed to be fifty-two.

Although the title was obviously inspired by the song "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?" (sung in Walt Disney's Three Little Pigs (1933)), Warner Brothers was unable to negotiate with Disney for the use of the tune, so when characters sing the title phrase, it was instead set to the melody of "Here We Go 'Round the Mulberry Bush".

Popular Dialogues

"Martha: I hope that was an empty bottle, George! You can't afford to waste good liquor, not on YOUR salary!"

"[Martha has changed into an embarrassingly tight and revealing outfit] George: Why Martha! Your Sunday chapel dress!"
