- TriviaSomeone in Mexico took exception to the idea of their country being a place for quickie divorces or marriages, and convinced the government to block Frank Sinatra (for a time) from entering Mexico, even though he owned property there.
- GoofsThe two wall calendars in Miguel's office are for December 1964 and April 1965. The calendar in his hotel lobby is for June 1965. A few weeks (at most) after the Mexico trip, it's suddenly Thanksgiving.

Featured review
This film intends to be wacky, I think, but ends up being nothing more than annoying. Where is the comedy in this comedy? Comedies should be fun. This one saunters through some boring situations, with lackluster performances, and expects laughs, apparently.
Frank Sinatra plays the role of the married man, firmly entrenched in responsibility, with a family that doesn't appreciate him. He goes through the motions, except when it comes to his job.
Dean Martin is best friend and bachelor--another cliché of the mid-sixties. He is constantly juggling the attentions of sexy women, providing a stark contrast to his "square" buddy, Frank.
Deborah Kerr's talents are wasted as Frank's wife--feeling unfulfilled and starved for attention.
The entire story revolves around a reversal that is as unfunny as it is improbable--Dean mistakenly marries Deborah. Oh, what will they do? How can they possibly extricate themselves from this situation that is filled with life lessons and comic banter?
I cannot recommend this film to anyone. It is mirthless.
