Trivia

Ferreri filmed in his actual Paris apartment with furniture he owned—this is literally his domestic space turned nightmare.

Cultural

Released the same year as Belle de Jour, this was part of 1967's cinematic obsession with women's unexplained sexual power and men's complete inability to handle it.
