Lance Kinsey's pregnant wife Nancy was due to give birth during production. He asked director Jim Drake if it was possible that they could have Proctor's scenes filmed early on, so Lance could go and be with his wife when she gave birth. Drake was happy to accommodate his request, shuffling the schedule to wrap Proctor's scenes early. Kinsey caught a flight home on November 12, just in time for the Kinseys to welcome their first son into the world on November 14, 1986.

Modern-day audiences regard Lee Marvin's Oscar win for a raucous comedy with puzzlement, especially given the heavy-hitting dramas released the same year, such as Darling (1965), Doctor Zhivago (1965) and Ship of Fools (1965). At the time, however, Marvin's over-the-top portrayal of two total-opposite brothers was a revelation following a career playing one-note heavies. The actor had never had an opportunity to show his lighter side, and audiences loved what they saw -- to the point where Marvin's nomination that year was for Cat Ballou (1965) rather than the far more prestigious and dramatic Ship of Fools (1965).
