| 1 | * CaliforniaDoubling: A mild case: the film was shot in Puerto Rico. |
| 2 | * CompletelyDifferentTitle: In Denmark and Finland the film was released as ''Me And the Revolution''. Creator/WoodyAllen would eventually put in a clause preventing foreign markets from renaming his films. |
| 3 | * {{Corpsing}}: Howard Cosell laughs when Nancy questions Fielding wanting to have sex "in the late Spring". |
| 4 | * DeletedScene: Scenes cut from the film included government troops, disguised as a rumba band, cha-cha-cha through the jungle to take the rebels by surprise and a bogus Creator/BobHope acting as decoy so government planes could bomb the rebels. |
| 5 | * EnforcedMethodActing: During the training montage when Fielding is learning how to throw a hand grenade, the pin in his hand explodes after he throws the grenade. The reaction by Creator/WoodyAllen is real as he was slightly singed by the incendiary device hidden in his hand, but Woody decided against doing the scene again and left it in the film as is. |
| 6 | * LoopingLines: During the "do you love me" scene near the end of the film, sharp eyes will notice neither Creator/LouiseLasser or Woody Allen are actually saying anything -- all of the dialog was ADR'ed. |
| 7 | * RealLifeRelative: Creator/WoodyAllen and Lousie Lasser were still married during the film's production, but would divorce shortly after the film appeared. |
| 8 | * SerendipityWritesThePlot: The musicians in the dinner scene at General Vargas' house were actually to be playing instruments, but the rented instruments hadn't arrived, and rather than wait, Creator/WoodyAllen decided the miming would fit with the tone of the film. |
| 9 | * TechnologyMarchesOn: The scene where Mellish buys a bunch of magazines and the cashier loudly calls across the store for the price of ''Orgasm'' is completely lost on younger viewers since they were all born well after scanner-equipped cash registers and UPC codes made audible price checks unnecessary. |
| 10 | * UncreditedRole: Creator/SylvesterStallone makes an early, uncredited appearance as a subway mugger. |
| 11 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: Creator/WoodyAllen initially intended to end the movie with him emerging from a riot with his face darkened from soot; the black rioters would then mistakenly claim him as one of their own. As with ''Film/TakeTheMoneyAndRun'', Allen's editor, Ralph Rosenblum, convinced him to go with an ending more organic to the story that came before it. |
| 12 | * WorkingTitle: ''El Weirdo''. |
