The name of Sonny Steele's horse in the film is "Rising Star". The star steed was played by a 5-year-old bay thoroughbred called "Let's Merge" after a 6-month equine talent search. Robert Redford bought the horse after production was complete and owned him for 18 years before the horse passed away.
Robert Redford did all of his own riding stunts in the film.
Most of the location shooting was done in Utah, USA near actor Robert Redford's home. This provided a tax break for him and also made things convenient for him as he had been living in seclusion in Utah for a few years.
This movie marked the first lead role in a movie after a 3-year hiatus for star Robert Redford who had put himself into semi-retirement and reclusive retreat at his mountaintop Utah ranch; his return to the big screen in this film was much-publicized.
Reportedly, a 20-second kissing scene took 48 takes to film and cost US $280,000 to shoot because of interruptions caused by traveling thunderstorms.
"Wendall: I'm gonna get me a bottle of tequila and find me one of them Keno girls that can suck the chrome off a trailer hitch and just kinda kick back."
"Hallie Martin: I've been to the rodeo. Twice. Sonny Steele: Did you stay for the rattlesnake roundup? Hallie Martin: Yes. I stayed. Right 'til the end. I saw the whole thing. Sonny Steele: They don't have one. How're you gonna round up a rattlesnake?"
