John Cairney and Nigel Green didn't get along at all during filming. Green accused Cairney of being very effeminate. The last scene they filmed together was the scene in which Hercules and Hylas enter the treasure chamber, hidden in the plinth of the mighty Talos. The lighting used to give the treasure its sparkling effect was very bright, and the following day, the actors began losing their vision. Both became temporarily blind and were hospitalized in the same room for two weeks with their eyes bandaged. They found they had a lot in common, and soon became fast friends. They remained so until Green died in the early '70s. Their sight returned after their hospital stay.
After Ray Harryhausen received the Gordon E. Sawyer Award recognizing his contributions to the film industry at the Oscars' Science & Technical Ceremony in 1992, Tom Hanks, the host of the event, said, "Some people say Citizen Kane (1941) or Casablanca (1942). I say 'Jason and the Argonauts' is the greatest movie ever made."
It took Ray Harryhausen four months to produce the skeleton scene, which runs, at most, three minutes.
Ray Harryhausen regarded this as his best film.
Talos was changed into a living bronze giant after the success of Sergio Leone's The Colossus of Rhodes (1961). It would become one of Ray Harryhausen's most famous creations.
"Phineas: Zeus, I was a sinner. I've never tried to deny it. But I didn't sin every day. Why then do you punish me *every day*?"
"Zeus: If I had to punish *every* blasphemy, I would have *no followers*!"
