TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

At one point during filming, Bruce Dern questioned Alfred Hitchcock about why he was cast. Hitchcock replied, "Because Mr. Packinow wanted a million dollars, and Hitch doesn't pay a million dollars." It took Dern a while to realize that "Mr. Packinow" was Al Pacino.

To make the cemetery in this movie appear weedy with long grass, the cemetery was paid by the production to let the grass and weeds grow for a whole four months without weeding and maintenance.

Cinematographer Leonard J. South once said of working with Alfred Hitchcock on this movie: "He asks what lens you have on the camera, then he looks at the scene and he knows what will appear on the screen. He's rarely wrong, and he never moves the camera without a reason. When it moves, it's because the audience should be looking around with the actors. He's very specific about that."

Bruce Dern had previously worked with Sir Alfred Hitchcock on episodes of Alfred Hitchcock Presents (1955), as well as having had a small role in Marnie (1964). Dern once said of working with Alfred Hitchcock on this movie: "He noticed everything, a shadow on a performer's face, a few seconds too long on a take. Just when we thought he had no idea what was going on, he'd snap us all to attention with the most incredible awareness of some small but disastrous detail that nobody would have noticed until it got on-screen, and then he'd be bored again."

When Burt Reynolds was considered for the part of Arthur Adamson, Alfred Hitchcock watched The Longest Yard (1974) to see if he was right for the role. Instead, Hitchcock was impressed with Ed Lauter and cast him in the role of Maloney.

"Arthur Adamson: Isn't it touching how a perfect murder has kept our friendship alive all these years?"
