The film's distributor threatened to seek an injunction against the U.S. Commissioner of Customs, who delayed granting clearance for The Love Game to be exhibited in the United States.[2]
Suzanne wants to marry Victor and have children with him. Victor however is not interested in becoming a husband or a father. While he cannot be bothered into complying with her wishes, their mutual friend Francois would be happy to do so. Consequently, Suzanne eventually turns to Francois. This leaves Victor no other choice than to change his mind if he wants Suzanne back.
