* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The film was going to have a female role, but prior to filming, it was cut from the script. Creator/IngridPitt, who was cast in the role, (and had been in ''Film/WhereEaglesDare'' with Creator/ClintEastwood the prior year) revealed that she was "virtually climbing on board the plane bound for Yugoslavia when word came through that my part had been cut."

Hutton, re-edited the film to remove some character-driven scenes and a more obvious anti-war message.
