Movie Trivia:
- The film was started by John Barry, but he was fired and replaced by Stanley Donen.
-
A fantasy sequence featuring Farrah Fawcett in a skimpy PVC jumpsuit was filmed but not used. Stills from the sequence were used extensively in publicity for the film on its original release.
-
Harvey Keitel's voice was dubbed by Roy Dotrice.
-
Colin Chilvers modeled "Hector" on a drawing by 'Leonardo da Vinci'.
-
Elmer Bernstein wrote an hour of music for the film, much of it progressive and experimental, but most of it was unused after the opening sequences until the film's last half hour. Bernstein removed some of the cues himself after the film was extensively re-edited because they did not work in truncated form while others appear to have been removed by producer and replacement director Stanley Donen. The full score was released as a very limited edition CD in 2008 that is now deleted.
