Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- The policeman directing traffic in the film's opening sequence is not an actor but a serving Rome policeman. Woody Allen saw the man at work in Piazza Venezia and added the scene purely so that he could appear in it.
- The newlywed strand of the film, in which Antonio loses his bride Milly in Rome, is a direct copy, with some amendments, of an entire Federico Fellini film: The White Sheik of 1952, written by Fellini with Tullio Pinelli and Ennio Flaiano.
