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. Released at the end of the Production Code era and before the MPAA film rating system became effective in 1968, it was the first Hollywood film of the sound era to feature nudity by a mainstream star (Mansfield).
The film was banned in Chicago, and several other major U.S. cities upon its release.[3][4]
