* * I certainly remember the buzz around the movie, but I was nine at the time
and believe I missed the actual film. (I rather vividly recall a concomitant
Playboy article -- perhaps a pictorial on the film? -- entitled "What's Nude,
Pussycat?" with Peter Sellers and Ursula Andress.) I didn't know it was Allen's
first. As it's on WI at Netflix, I will have to watch it sometime soon, thanks!
