Trivia

Bob's $120,000 life insurance policy payout, adjusted to inflation, is equivalent to about $1,100,00 in 2021.

The picture on the bedroom wall in Lisa and Bob's apartment is a print of a painting by Henri Rousseau, called "The Sleeping Gypsy," painted in 1897. It is a fantastical depiction of a lion musing over a sleeping woman on a moonlit night.

The plane Robert is depicted as flying in is a 1944 Douglas DC-4, registration F-BBDR. Originally built as a C-54 Skymaster cargo and transport plane for the U.S. Army Air Force in WWII. It was converted after the war to a commercial passenger aircraft in 1946 and flew with American Airlines as N90437. It was acquired by Air France in 1949 and flew with them until 1967. After that it flew with various airlines, mainly in Africa, until it was scrapped in 1998.

The car Lisa drives is a 1959 Simca Aronde P60 Plein Ciel.

Jeanne Moreau was originally announced for the role of Lisa Macklin.
