- All-Star Cast: It's a Disaster Movie from The '70s, so of course this comes into play. Among the familiar faces seen are George C. Scott, Anne Bancroft, Gig Young, Richard Dysart, William Atherton, Burgess Meredith, Charles Durning, René Auberjonois, Alan Oppenheimer, and Katherine Helmond.
- Magnum Opus Dissonance: In his autobiography, Robert Clary speaks particularly fondly of his performance as Spah, which he thought might win him a Best Supporting Actor Award. The film flopped, and while it has been Vindicated by History, his TV performances are still far better known and regarded than his (admittedly show-stealing) turn as Spah.
- What Could Have Been: According to Film Noir Reader 3: Interviews with Filmmakers of the Classic Noir Period, Robert Wise originally wanted to shoot the entire film in black and white, but was overruled by the studio. For this, he decided to use a lot of dark and black colors in the interiors to pull off this expression. If you prefer his original vision, just adjust the color settings on your video player to monochrome.
