** Creator/BrianKeith's performance is convincing enough for some viewers to conclude that he was a fluent Russian speaker, though this claim appears unverified.[[note]]At the time of the film's release, Keith said that he worked with a language coach in preparation for his role, although there are anecdotes about him having some command of Russian dating back to his military service.[[/note]] Wood praised Keith's strong command of the language, though noting that he couldn't disguise his American accent.
