Edit
Trivia Rita Hayworth, in a financial distress at the time, joined the crew with slight apprehension because of a previous film experience in Italy where she had not been treated well. Georges Lautner later claimed that she was so warmly welcomed by his production team and felt so happy during shooting, she genuinely wept when time came to split up. See more »
