''What's Up, Tiger Lily?'' is a 1966 comedy film written and directed by Creator/WoodyAllen in his directorial debut. The film, featuring a soundtrack by Music/TheLovinSpoonful, is a GagDub of the 1965 Japanese {{spy|fiction}} film[=/=]''Film/JamesBond'' [[FollowTheLeader clone]] ''International Secret Police: Key of Keys'', in which superspy Phil Moscowitz searches for a secret egg salad recipe stolen from the leader of a "real-sounding but non-existent" country ("We're on the waiting list. As soon as a spot opens up on the map, we're in."). The idea of a gag dub was so new that Allen appears in an interview segment at the beginning to explain the concept.
