Shirley MacLaine and Robert Mitchum began a love affair that lasted for years during the shooting of this film, which was
based on the Broadway play that starred Anne Bancroft and Henry Fonda.
Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman were both set to do this film, but when Taylor became ill during the early filming of
Cleopatra
(1963), Newman was able to do
The Hustler
(1961) instead.
