Production The film was produced by Vittorio Sindoni with actor Glenn Saxson, here credited with his birth name Roel Bos. It was shot between Rome and Amsterdam. It marked the second collaboration between Sindoni and Pamela Tiffin. Tiffin used a body-double in her nude scenes. It also was the first film of Enrico Montesano following the termination of his contract with Dino De Laurentiis and the ensuing lawsuit.
Release The film was released in Italian cinemas by P.A.C. in November 1973.
Reception The film was a surprise box office success, grossing over 894 million lire. It was generally badly received by critics. Paolo Mereghetti panned it, describing it as "a farce that aims to satirize masculine insecurities and consequences of Catholic upbringing, [...] but the screenplay [...] goes no further than a few easy misunderstandings about infidelity and cassocks, and the all-too-easy availability of women.".
