Adding information on Cara's Billing Displacement

** Several releases also put heavy emphasis on Creator/BillMaher and Creator/IreneCara, both of whom have minimal screen time at best. Cara in particular received fifth billing during the original release for a role that Roger Ebert described as "She gets into a cab, smiles, gives an autograph, and that's it." Cara was at the height of her stardom in 1983 when the movie was released, but today she is probably less known among the cast than Mr. T, Max Gail, Gary Busey, Maher, Adam Baldwin, Paul Rodriguez, Marsha Warfield and Whitman Mayo, making the billing seem odd in retrospect.
