The lead female role of of Deborah Blake in this picture was previously intended for Natalie Wood who had unrealized plans to both produce and star in the movie. Wood once had planned to produce the picture as well as star in it in the role of Deborah Blake but those plans never materialized. The part in the end was played in the film by Kathleen Quinlan.
The lead character of Deborah Blake was offered to actress Patty Duke during the late 1960s. But she turned it down because she wanted to be married and not work at the time.
Final theatrical feature film of actress Diane Varsi who portrayed Sylvia.
Barbara Steele is billed as part of the cast in the closing credits for the film but it appears any of her scenes never reached the final cut.
Natalie Wood was a close friend of the movie's writer, Gavin Lambert, and was working with Sydney Pollack, when she was planning to produce this picture.
"Deborah Blake: You can turn me off, you know. You can go off with your friends and write another paper on schizophrenia and get an award for it. But I can't turn me off. So I'm calling off the fight. Dr. Fried: So you quit. Stay in the nuthouse for the rest of your life."
"Dr. Fried: You created these gods & you can destroy them. You're stronger than they are. If you give up Yri, you'll be able to feel in this world. Don't call off the fight, Deborah, you can win. You are strong enough, but YOU have to make the choice."
