Actor Kris Kristofferson wanted to keep his beard for the role of Hubbell Smith, but director Alan J. Pakula objected. A compromise of sorts was reached with Pakula allowed Kristofferson to keep his beard as long as he could find one real life New York banker with one. Kristofferson was unable to so he had to shave for the role.
In a case of life imitating art, Jane Fonda, just like her character in this picture, also retired from acting to marry an important businessman. The 'Allmovie' website states that this movie ''foreshadowed Jane Fonda's marriage to corporate bigwig Ted Turner in 1991.'' These nuptials occurred about exactly a decade or ten years after 'Rollover' (1981).
This movie was the second consecutive box-office flop for actor Kris Kristofferson whose previous picture had been the financial disaster Heaven's Gate (1980).
Before Kris Kristofferson was cast in the lead role of Hubbell Smith, Jeff Bridges was originally offered the role but turned it down to play the lead role of Clu/Kevin Flynn in Tron (1982). Bridges would soon star with Jane Fonda about five years later in 'The Morning After' (1986). Bridges ended up working with Pakula about eight years later in 'See You in the Morning' (1989). Fonda and Bridges later both appeared in the documentaries, 'Hal' (2018) and 'Alan Pakula: Going for Truth' (2019. These docs respectively were about Hollywood film directors Hal Ashby and Alan J.Pakula and were first released in the consecutive years.
The film's title is a financial term. The Free Dictionary website defines a 'Rollover' as "the reinvestment of money received from a maturing security in another similar security. Rollover usually applies to short-term investments such as certificates of deposit, commercial paper, and Treasury bills. For example, investors often want a rollover of the proceeds from a maturing certificate of deposit into a new certificate of deposit."
"Maxwell Emery: Listen me out! Money, capital, has a life of its own. It's a force of the nature like gravity, like the oceans, it flows where it wants to flow. This whole thing with the Arabs and gold is inevitable, we're just going with the tide. The only question is whether you wanna let it go like an unguided missile and raise hell or whether you wanna keep it in the hands of responsible people, keep it channable, keep it quiet."
"[last lines] Hubbell Smith: I've been worried about you. Lee Winters: How are you? Hubbell Smith: Like everybody else. Looking for a way to begin again. Lee Winters: You're gonna need a partner."
