Promises! Promises!

is a 1963 American sex comedy film directed by King Donovan and starring Tommy Noonan (who also served as cowriter and coproducer) and Jayne Mansfield.[3][4] Sandy Brooks is desperate to become pregnant, but her husband Jeff, a television script writer, is too stressed to make love to her.[5] Tommy Noonan had offered the role of Claire to Mamie Van Doren, but she declined and was replaced with Marie McDonald, in her final screen appearance.The publication led to an obscenity charge against Hugh Hefner,[12] who was arrested by Chicago police in June 1963,[14] but the subsequent trial ended with a hung jury, and thus acquittal.On February 14, 2006, VCI Home Video released the film on DVD with extras such as original trailers and a gallery of stills from the Playboy issue, along with previously unreleased lobby cards.[19] Chicago Sun-Times movie critic Roger Ebert wrote: "Finally, in 'Promises, Promises' she did what no Hollywood actress ever does except in desperation: she made a nudie.
