Production
The film was announced in December 1961 as Tammy Takes Over'. Dee made it after another film for Hunter, If a Man Answers.[4]
Ross Hunter liked to develop new talent and the movie features 23 actors who had never made a film before.[5] Among them was Peter Fonda, who had enjoyed critical acclaim for his performance in Blood, Sweat and Stanley Poole. Hunter signed Peter Fonda to a seven years contract.[6] Filmink magazine argued Fonda at this stage of his career was "a sort of poor man’s James Stewart – tall, gangly, boy next door, virginal looks, etc. (And Stewart was, famously, best friends with Fonda’s father, Henry)."[7]
