* DisownedAdaptation: The film was basically an InNameOnly adaption of Ann Jellicoe's 1962 play ''The Knack'', just taking the setting and characters and building a new story from them, and Jellicoe publicly expressed her hatred of the film.
* NoBudget: It was made for a mere £100,000, around $350,000 US at 1964 exchange rates, and equivalent to about 2 million pounds[=/=]3 million USD in today's money.
* SleeperHit: Despite NoBudget, no big name stars, and its very British setting, it was a surprise hit in the US, making back almost ten times its budget.
