Una cadillac tutta d'oro

The final sequence was filmed in color, to better show off the supposedly solid gold Cadillac driven by Laura (Judy Holliday) and McKeever (Paul Douglas). The sequence was shot on location in Rockefeller Center in New York City. When prints of the film subsequently were struck for television broadcast, the color was not reproduced satisfactorily; so as to save on expenses, for several decades, this sequence was seen on television only in black and white. The original color print finally was restored for home video in the 1990s and is now also shown on cable television as originally filmed.

When Laura looks at the letter from the stockholder (that informs her of the bankruptcy of Apex Clock Co.), the letter has about six stamps and a postmark in the upper corner. The postmark is correct for Pittsfield MA, but the stamps are just a mix of foreign postage. The three totally visible ones are from Nigeria, India, and Canada; a Singapore stamp is partially visible.
