Production
Darryl F. Zanuck had a long history of trying to turn his European mistresses into film stars – he had previously done this with Bella Darvi, Juliette Gréco and Irina Demick.[3] Hello Goodbye was created as a vehicle for Gilles, his latest mistress, and was the first production Zanuck personally supervised since he inserted Demick in The Longest Day (1962).[4]
Filming started on the French Riviera under the direction of Ronald Neame. He quit the film after a few weeks due to disagreements with Zanunck. He was replaced by Jean Negulesco, who only did the movie as a favor to Zanuck.[5]
Box office
According to Fox records, the film required $7,225,000 in rentals to break even. It failed to do so; by 11 December 1970, the film had only made $2,335,000.[6]
