Trivia
Kim Hopkins said in an interview that she was cast to play Young Xaviera, but while filming her scene, the director wanted her to take off her top. She refused, saying she hadn't agreed to that. She had also sworn never to perform nude again after being talked into being fully nude in her first film The Hollywood Knights (1980). The director told her Julie Andrews did it, and Hopkins said, "Her husband was directing it." He brought up Bo Derek, and she said Bo Derek wasn't an actor, and again refused to do it. He threatened to fire her, but she stood her ground and he finally relented after she agreed to wear a sheer blouse that slightly showed her nipples.

Goofs
When Xaviera tells Miles and Marian they should come to New York, under Miles's reaction shot is heard the audio "sounds delightful", but his lips don't move in the visual.

Quotes
Chris: [in jealousy of Lionel's affair with Xaviera] What? You think you're such a big man, taking freebies from a whore?
Lionel Lamely: That's really ugly, Chris.
Chris: Well, you're not so cute yourself.
