Includes examples of the following tropes:
- Brother–Sister Incest: Boris is shown complimenting Ingrid in inappropriate ways and even takes her towel away from her after she goes skinny dipping. When she dies, he meets a prostitute named Olga, who reminds Boris very much of Ingrid. As a result, he falls for her. It doesn't help that Olga gets plastic surgery to look exactly like Ingrid as part of a heist.
- Fanservice: Ingrid, played by the very attractive Belinda Mayne, is shown skinny dipping in one scene, with numerous shots emphasizing her figure.
- MacGuffin Title: The title refers to a legendary diamond that Boris and Ingrid are trying to keep out of the hands of a gang of criminals.
- Pop-Star Composer: The film's soundtrack was composed by Deep Purple keyboardist Jon Lord.
- Title Theme Tune: "White Fire", an exceptionally 80s AOR number performed by the rock group Limelight.
