The Running Jumping & Standing Still Film trivia

The film was conceived and produced merely as an experiment and chance for Peter Sellers to use his latest purchase, a Bolex film camera.

Initial scenes were directed by Spike Milligan, with Sellers asking Dick Lester to take over when Spike had to leave for Australia. Milligan does not receive a credit for this work.
