Trivia: During the title sequence, as Millie is buying a pack of cigarettes from a vendor, her undergarment breaks. The vendor stares at her in surprise, and she does a slight curtsy and walks away. When the film was originally released, that was followed by a quick shot of the vendor looking down and seeing Millie's broken undergarment lying on the sidewalk, but for some unknown reason, that shot has been deleted.
