Trama
Lo sapevi?
- QuizThe identity of the actor playing Coogan is an apparent mystery. He is not listed in the film credits nor in any secondary sources, and director Sergio Sollima stated in an interview that he could not remember what his name was.
- BlooperIn the shooting scene after Coogan and Vanessa left in the Porsche, the P08 Luger, with which Jeff kills his three pursuers, is seen at one moment in a take from behind with the breech opened (magazine empty) and in the very next moment in a take from the front with the breech closed (pistol loaded). This continuity-error is about ten minutes into the movie, in a scene where Jeff lies in the sand and shoots the last attacker on the other side of the burning car.
- Citazioni
Al Weber: You like my place? It costs more than an aircraft carrier,
[chuckles]
Al Weber: but I had to have it.
[pushes button, and giant mural disappears to reveal indoor swimming pool]
Al Weber: I've got a very, very demanding wife. You know something, before she'd marry me, I had to buy her a million dollar country place.
[she is swimming naked in the pool]
Al Weber: Hey, I'm not complaining. She earned it long before the honeymoon was even over.
[chuckles]
Al Weber: You've got a lot of style.
[she gets out and Jeff sees that it's Vanessa]
Al Weber: You know something, Jeff, I'm not a novice, I've been around, but I will tell you something. She showed me more surprises, I mean, very, very pleasant ones.
[as Jeff looks at her]
Al Weber: Oh, oh, I forgot, you knew her. She used to run around with you a couple of years ago, right, and then she dumped you for this guy Coogan when he got his inheritance. It's all right, Jeff, I squared it for you. I mean, she dumped him too, and quickly, the minute she met me. Hey, you were smart to let her go. I mean, she's too... she's too lively. No, you're young, you'd have taken it too badly. As for me, as far as I'm concerned, when she goes off on one of these escapades, you know, I'm... relieved, I'm an old man, I gotta rest every now and then. Oh, women, they're so beautiful, you know, they could be the biggest boors in the world, and yet, they insist on... propriety, and keeping up appearances. When she goes off on these romantic weekends, then she knows that if I object, she wouldn't move an inch, and yet, she comes back, and she starts these... these scenes, telling all these lies, twenty years old is the tale. Ah. You know, in her own way, I think she's... she's a great artist. Come on, let's drink, let's drink... let's drink to the talents of my wife.
Jeff Heston: I told you I wasn't thirsty.
- Curiosità sui creditiThe end titles are brief, lasting little more than thirty seconds, accompanied by Ennio Morricone's dramatic theme. The credits run out after a mentioning of a wig supplier. Blank screen. The theme music continues gloriously, till eventual completion.
- Versioni alternativeThe Anchor Bay DVD version restores eight minutes of footage originally cut by United Artists for the U.S. release. Because these scenes were never dubbed into English, they are presented in their original Italian language with English subtitles.
