Quiz
For this film, Nancy Kwan wore costumes made by Mary Quant, and had her hair cut by top hairdresser Vidal Sassoon, in a short, geometric bob. Considered the first time the styles (both of hair and of wear) of swinging London to be captured on film.

Citazioni
Mrs. Tovey: That's a nice dress you've nearly got on. Have you been out dancing all night?
Marjorie Lee: I, er put it on for the office party.
Mrs. Tovey: Now you watch out. You'll have all the men around you like flies.
Marjorie Lee: Who me? Mrs T., can I ask you a question?
Mrs. Tovey: Yes, you can, love.
Marjorie Lee: Did you have lots of boyfriends?
Mrs. Tovey: Oh, hundreds!
Marjorie Lee: And did they all want to make passionate love to you?
Marjorie Lee: You're like a lot of your young sort. You think you invented all this sex business. And we older people, we know nothing about it, I suppose?
Marjorie Lee: Mrs. Tovey, I...
Mrs. Tovey: Now, listen; I was a young woman, same as you. And I had my feelings. Just like you. When I was your age, my family slept eight in one room. It was like a bloody farmyard. But I kept myself to myself. And if you want to keep yourself decent, you will as well. I'll see you later.

Entertaining light British comedy

A very enjoyable and fast paced farce. Nancy Kwan is perfect as the impish bride to be on her last day at the company that produces "it" perfume. (Wasn't Twiggy the original "it" girl?) It has a splendid cast of British character actors, headed by Terry Thomas and including Victor Spinetti, who must have gone straight from this (production began in late 1963) to his role in "Hard Day's Night." There are certain similarities in the look of these films, from the titles to of course the exteriors and certain motifs. Some good dialog and physical comedy. Glorious black and white cinematography, at times gritty and at others glamorous. Overall very enjoyable. The only uneasy thing in the movie, which is not particular to this film and common to similar storylines, is the guys continuously hitting on Kwan are sad reminders of what the workplace once was like and all too sadly as today's news shows, still are far too often. But as other reviews mention, these scenes always resolve innocuously or ridiculously for the guys doing the hitting. Well worth the time watching.
