Mata (the daughter) was played by Joanna Pettet.  The problem with the movie
was that it was directed by something near seven directors.  (This is slight
hyperbole).  The result is less than cohesive.  In addition, huge segments are
normally lifted from the Casino Royale every time it is shown on TV.  One
entire 'chapter' is usually excised--the one with Deborah Kerr at the castle.

I don't really remember if Woody Allen penned the script, but its possible.
His first screenplay, I beleive, was "What's new pussy cat." This was
referred to in the West Berlin segment of Casino Royale, as the theme song
blared out from an open manhole.

What's New is a similar but better film.  Peter Sellers, Ursula Andress and
Woody Allen are in both films.
