Curiosità
Some Call It Loving, also known as Sleeping Beauty, is a 1973 American romantic mystery erotic drama film written, produced and directed by James B. Harris and starring Zalman King, Carol White, Tisa Farrow and Richard Pryor. It is based on a short story by John Collier.
Production
James B. Harris found John Collier's story in Fancies and Goodnights while doing research for Stanley Kubrick's Lolita. In the original, the Sleeping Beauty is so unlikable when she awakes that the man puts her back to sleep. Harris was more interested in a relationship that soured because of the man's inability to escape his own obsessions.
The baritone saxophone solos in the film were recorded by Ronnie Lang. The rest of the band consisted of Conte Candoli (trumpet), Bob Brookmeyer (trombone), Dave Grusin (keyboard), Ray Brown (bass) and Stan Levey (drums).
