Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Nelson Lyon wrote for Saturday Night Live's first season; this was his only feature. The film was believed lost until a 35mm print resurfaced in 2011.
The 'John Smith' character name deliberately evokes every anonymous man, mocking how women reduce distinct individuals to interchangeable male desire. The film's restoration sparked debate about whether it was proto-feminist or just exploitation with better art direction.
