| Languages: | English, Spanish |
| Plot: | Peter Sellers stars as Harold Fine, a self-described square--a 35-year-old Los Angeles Lawyer who is not looking forward to middle age and his upcoming wedding. His life changes, however, when he falls in love with Nancy, a free-spirited, innocent, and beautiful young hippie. After Harold and his family enjoy some of her "groovy" brownies, he decides to "drop out" with her and become a hippie too. But can he return to his old life when he discovers that the hippie lifestyle is just a little too independent and irresponsible for his tastes? |

Revealing mistakes: The closeup of Harold's hand moving over Nancy's butterfly tattoo shows the top corner to be plainly reflective, with a clear irregular line visible outside the wing. Continuity: Cops stop psychedelic hippie hearse right in front of the same supermarket that is seen in background several miles back when they began pursuing vehicle in opposite direction. |
