The failure of the original copyright holder to renew the film's copyright resulted in it falling into public domain, meaning that virtually anyone could duplicate and sell a VHS/DVD copy of the film. Therefore, many of the versions of this film available on the market are either severely (and usually badly) edited and/or of extremely poor quality, having been duped from second- or third-generation (or more) copies of the film.

The design for the number "One-Two-Three" is based on the paintings of Jean Honoté Fragonard (1732-1806).

The original novel on which this is loosely based was "Und war kusst mich?" by Friedrich Dammann (1901-62), who is co-credited here only for a "film-story idea" under his real name F(riedrich) Dammann. He is best known for the twice-filmed cult classic "Madchen In Uniform".
