The film was important in the career of Roger Vadim. His mentor Marc Allegret was directing with Jean Marais to star. Vadim says a week before filming Marais refused to do the movie as he was unhappy with the script. Vadim rewrote the script to the star's satisfaction. The movie was a big success. Vadim and Allegret tried to have Vadim's wife Brigitte Bardot cast as the female lead but the producer went with the better known Dany Robin. However this led to Vadim being given the job of rewriting Naughty Girl which turned Bardot into a star. [5]
