    • Trivia
      Christopher Plummer admitted that he did the film so he could visit Italy for free. In an interview he said "Give me Rome any day. I'll do porno in Rome, as long as I can get to Rome. Getting to Rome was the greatest thing that happened in that for me."

      Stella Star's wardrobe changes many times during a single scene through the entire film. At one point, her leather two-piece attire has a red collar and straps across her midsection. They disappear and later reappear during the same scene.
