An irresistible mega-movie. "There's no use kidding ourselves," Lewis Gilbert said. "The appeal of this film will be based on sex and violence, of course. But the difference is, this will be the first sex and violence epic. Usually sex and violence are counted on to sell themselves, and so that sort of thing is made cheaply..." The international cast includes Candice Bergen as the richest girl in the world, Leigh Taylor-Young as Fehmiu's South American lover, Olivia De Havilland, in what will probably be her last movie seduction scene, and soprano Anna Moffo who took leave from the opera to play yet another of Fehmiu's conquests.
