1 | * AwardSnub: It received two UsefulNotes/AcademyAward nominations for Best Director and Original Screenplay, but it wasn't nominated for Best Picture. |
2 | * SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: At the end, when Thomas returns the imaginary ball to the mimes playing imaginary tennis. |
3 | * RetroactiveRecognition: In the scene where Music/TheYardbirds play at a local club, you can spot Creator/MichaelPalin between the crowd. |
4 | * OnceOriginalNowCommon: The many parodies of, and homages to, this film make it seem little more than a camp classic to first-time viewers--a far cry from the X-rated sensation it was seen as at the time of its release in the 1960s. |
5 | * SpiritualSuccessor: Antonioni's next film ''Film/ZabriskiePoint'' dealt with America's counter-culture, featuring PopStarComposer Music/PinkFloyd, ambiguous GainaxEnding, and a much darker tone. |
6 | * ValuesDissonance: In 1966, the sex was scandalous, and the hero's attitude toward women completely unremarkable. Today, the two are reversed. |
