I watched this on TCM last night and got mesmerized by the down-on-their-luck / 'lost-in-space' story. Also, seeing how ugly much of LA could be to travel through took me back to my mid-60s time there. Both stars (Gary Lockwood & Aminee) where also hot eye candy. But what a sad ending: She leaves him and returns to France - and once in the US Army he probably gets sent to Vietnam and killed. And as I researched Gary's career - it made me wonder why he never got to big a bigger star.
