Continuity mistake: When Charlotte hastily makes the bed and shoves Ted out onto the window ledge, the bed covers rearrange themselves between shots: a purple sheet that she'd tucked in before is now peeking out over the bedspread. (00:15:05)

8. 5/10. A pretty amusing movie directed by and starring Gene Wilder. The man was a comedic legend who knew how to be funny unlike today's hacks. Kelly Lebrock seems to be enjoying herself here as does Gilda Radner. I found the concept of a married man pursuing the woman of his dreams is amusing, We've all felt like that maybe which makes this movie all the more interesting. Wilder plays things perfectly, showing his creative and comedic genius nicely.

Teddy Pierce: While Didi was waiting for me in San Francisco, Charlotte was waiting in Los Angeles. Two women waiting for me in the middle of the night. Crazy as it seems, I had adventure in my life.
Trivia: When Kelly Lebrock is on the subway grate getting her dress blown up, it's a nod to Marilyn Monroe's movie " The Seven Year Itch."
Question: How did Miss Milner know that it was Teddy who (unintentionally) asked her out on a date? She couldn't see him and he didn't introduce himself so I am very confused.
