At the premiere Robert Mitchum assaulted a female reporter and threw a basketball that he was holding (a prop from the film) at a female photographer from "Time" magazine, smashing a camera into her face and knocking two of her teeth out. She sued him for $30 million for damages. He eventually paid her his salary from the film.
