Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThis movie was shown in "Smell-O-Vision". The theater was equipped with a system that gave off various odors in sync with this movie. The opening scene involved a butterfly flitting through a rose garden, with accompanying delicious odors. Later on, a barrel of wine fell off of a cart going up a hill, and rolled down the street only to smash at the bottom, again to the accompanying odor.
- GaffesWhen Oliver lands the single engine plane, the prop stops in a nearly vertical position. In the next shot, the prop is in a horizontal position. Since the engine had stopped, the prop could have not moved like that.
- Citations
Oliver Larker: [narrating] I haven't been away from my flat in 9 years, and 6 mysteries. But, I suppose the creator of a private eye has to get out in public every so often. And I hate to travel - unless it's in the Commonwealth. Otherwise you meet so many foreigners, who don't even speak English. And all those beastly tourists - mostly Americans. They don't speak English either.
- Générique farfeluThere is a credit for the shoe polish brightening the cast's shoes.
- Autres versionsIn the UK version of Holiday in Spain, Elizabeth Taylor is credited as Liz Rolyat, (Taylor spelled backwards).

This is very silly and should not under any circumstances be taken seriously. Any attempt to not follow that advice will lead into the inevitable result of you not liking the movie at all. Actually of you dreading the movie. And it's comedy might be considered poor taste, it's acting poor too.
But it is silly and simple for a reason and it stays true to that formula til the end (even if it has hits and misses throughout). The main character with his conviction of knowing more than he actually does helps the movie a lot. Also Mr. Lorre in a role that we are not used seeing him, is great too. All in all, a crime comedy, that might not be something to really recommend ... But still funny to watch
