One of the attractions of adapting this movie for author John Irving was that he wanted his son, Colin Irving, to play Wally Worthington. However, as the development process took over a decade, eventually his son was too old for the part, and was not known enough to be considered for it in any event. However, the role of Major Winslow did ultimately provide Colin Irving a part in this movie.
Sir Michael Caine used John Huston as the basis for his New England accent.
The orphan who gets into the pie dough and eats all of it, and is shown throwing up all over the orphanage, is named "Steerforth". Steerforth is the name of one of the main character's friends in the Charles Dickens book "David Copperfield", which Homer reads to the children in their bedroom.
"Dr. Wilbur Larch: Goodnight, you princes of Maine, you kings of New England."
