• • Production began in September — — on 23 September 1969.

• • Author Gore Vidal, who disowned the screen version of his novel, had named his character "Letitia Van Allen" — — but Mae West insisted that her role should be advertised as "Leticia," citing "the obvious reasons."
• • In this production, Mae West performed the songs "Hard to Handle" and "You Gotta Taste All the Fruit." During the shoot, the actress would come to work surrounded by young, muscular males. She would tell the studio security, "They're with me!"
• • Director Michael Sarne did not use a lot of the material Mae West had written for her scenes, she later complained to newspaper reporters.
• • This box office disappointment was the feature debut of actor Tom Selleck.
