What's left behind the scenes
- Audrey Hepburn once said that the scene where her character stains Alex's suit with ice cream was taken from real life. Once, at a reception, she accidentally spilled wine on Cary Grant's suit.
- Initially, Cary Grant refused to star in the film. He believed that at 59, he would look like an old man chasing Audrey Hepburn's much younger heroine. Screenwriter Peter Stone told the actor that he would rewrite the script, after which Grant withdrew his objections. As it later turned out, Stone simply 'transferred' all the ambiguous lines of Grant's character to Hepburn's character.
- The young man in the elevator in the embassy building who talks about poker is screenwriter Peter Stone, whose speech was dubbed over by director Stanley Donen.
- When Audrey Hepburn's character smokes in the empty apartment, Cary Grant's character also enters. In this scene, the tips of the actor's ears were glued to his head with adhesive tape, as they were literally glowing red and were very noticeable due to the spotlights behind him.
- Considering that Cary Grant was almost 60 years old and his body was slightly softening, it was decided that he would take a shower in his clothes. The very first take convinced the filmmakers and actors that it was even funnier that way.
- The film features copies of truly very rare, and therefore valuable, stamps.
- When Audrey Hepburn's character is in a nightclub, her then-husband, Mel Ferrer (1917-2008), can be seen in the background smoking a cigarette.
