This film was originally set to have been made several years earlier, starring Glenn Ford, Ernest Borgnine and Stacy Keach. Richard Lang was to have been director.
The character of Dan Durando is the only one of the escapees that is fictional. The actual sixth member was Clarence Carnes, a Native American who was spared execution because he refused to kill the captured prison guards as ordered, although he was given an additional life term.
The film depicts only 6 men getting out of their cells and trying to escape. In fact, almost 30 inmates were freed from their cells, but returned when they were unable to open the door of the cell house.
"Bernard 'Bernie' Paul Coy: [delivering books to Stroud's cell in D-Block] How's the old Birdman? Robert Stroud: Breaking even. The way I figure it, it's better than breaking out. Bernard 'Bernie' Paul Coy: Thought you might've changed your mind. Robert Stroud: It ain't gonna work, Bernie. Bernard 'Bernie' Paul Coy: It'll work. It's *got* to. Robert Stroud: "Got to" won't get you outta here. Bernard 'Bernie' Paul Coy: It's all planned out. Robert Stroud: Yeah. Sure it is. Now, if you could only walk on water. Bernard 'Bernie' Paul Coy: We're taking over the boat. Robert Stroud: I wish you luck."
"Officer Bill Miller: [dayshift guards are arriving for work] Hey-hey! Cece! How was the vacation? Officer Corwin: Great. Took in Yosemite. [they start walking up the hill to the main cellhouse] Officer Corwin: I think this hill got steeper while I was gone. Officer Bill Miller: Have you ever thought about living on the island? Officer Corwin: No. Cathy won't consider it. It's too close to the cons, she says."
