Note that we have seen English posters with all three titles mentioned above. A knowledgeable collector tells us that it is quite likely that English posters promoting the film in the U.K. featured "The Feminine Touch", and that English posters promoting the film in Canada initially used "The Gentle Touch", but new posters were printed with the title "A Lamp Is Heavy" to capitalize on the fact that the movie is based on a Canadian book using that title.
