    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      In his memoirs, Richard Fleischer, who directed the studio-imposed reshoots for the movie, recalled that Robert Mitchum's alcoholism caused a lot of problems for the production. One time when Fleischer was forced to shoot a scene with Mitchum when Mitchum was intoxicated, Mitchum kept pushing off the stuntmen who in the scene were trying to hold him down. Finally, Fleischer told Mitchum that he was making a fool of himself and Fleischer. Mitchum got so angry from this remark, he then proceeded to completely demolish the entire set. The next morning, a then sober Mitchum realized what he had done the previous day while intoxicated, and was extremely remorseful, deeply apologizing to Fleischer for his behavior. Mitchum caused no further problems for the rest of the reshoots.
    • Goofs
      When Thompson's two henchman are trying to outflank Cardigan, the gray-haired henchman, who is wearing light coloured trousers, runs from the left of the shot and passes behind a rock. However, the man who emerges from behind the rock, and is immediately shot by Cardigan, has dark hair and is wearing dark trousers.
