What's left behind the scenes
- A more accurate translation of the title is “Ketie, the street girl”.
- Director Paul Verhoeven agreed to film this movie after reading only a detailed synopsis, in which the story of the main character was told in parallel with a description of the social and political situation in the country during the period in question. When pre-production was already in full swing, Verhoeven and producer Gerard Soeteman reworked the synopsis into a screenplay, but producer Rob Haver refused to give it the “green light,” considering it too expensive. Haver instructed Verhoeven and Soeteman to focus on the heroine’s personal problems and remove almost all social issues from the script, including scenes of rebellion, for which Verhoeven had originally agreed to take on the project.
- Problems during filming arose not only from the script. Cinematographer Jan de Bont and actress Monique van de Ven had first met on the set of Verhoeven’s drama “Turkish Delight” (1973). De Bont viewed the filming of the nude scenes with van de Ven with extreme ambivalence, so the atmosphere on the set of “Kitty and the Hustler” was quite tense. For the nude scenes, they even hired a local prostitute instead of van de Ven, and at one point Martin, Verhoeven’s wife and a psychologist by profession, had to be invited to the set to help defuse the atmosphere.
- The film was shot in The Hague, Utrecht, Amsterdam, Leiden, and Brussels due to the abundance of old buildings there. Even so, during filming, props such as a baker’s cart or basket weavers had to be placed on the set to hide attributes of the twentieth century from the audience – antennas, parking meters, and supermarkets.

- Director Paul Verhoeven agreed to direct the film after reading only a detailed synopsis, which told the story of the main character alongside a description of the social and political climate in the country during the period depicted. When pre-production was already in full swing, Verhoeven and producer Gerard Soeteman reworked the synopsis into a screenplay, but producer Rob Houwer refused to give it the green light, considering it too expensive. Houwer instructed Verhoeven and Soeteman to focus on the heroine's personal problems and remove almost all social issues from the script, including scenes of rebellion, which were, in fact, the reason Verhoeven had agreed to take on the project.
- Problems during filming arose not only from the script. Cinematographer Jan de Bont and actress Monique van de Ven had met on the set of Verhoeven's drama *Turkish Delight* (1973). De Bont had a very ambiguous attitude towards filming nude scenes with van de Ven, so the atmosphere on the set of *The Fourth Man* was quite tense. They even hired a local prostitute to film the nude scenes instead of van de Ven, and at one point, Verhoeven's wife, Martine, a psychologist by profession, had to be invited to the set to help defuse the atmosphere.
