During the filming of the scene where Maria attempts to escape through a canyon wired with dynamite, Claudia Cardinale's stunt double was badly injured during the explosion. Cardinale, who had never ridden a horse before, performed the stunt herself for the final cut, and escaped uninjured.
First western to feature nudity although it is a long-range view and tame by later standards.
Burt Lancaster, at 52, insisted on doing all his own stunts. Due to camera angles and lack of full facial lines of sights during stunts, it is doubtful that this bit of trivia is indeed fact and more legend. Point of fact, the rock climbing scene in which Lancaster wires dynamite to take out a pass. A stuntman is likely used in that climb because of the way it was shot.
Lee Marvin took it upon himself to keep the film's guns clean in the unpredictable desert conditions.
According to Producer Phil Parslow, Lee Marvin's opening scene in which he demonstrates a machine gun, was the only time Marvin filmed a scene drunk in the entire movie, despite many stories to the contrary.
"[last lines] J.W. Grant: You bastard. Rico: Yes, Sir. In my case an accident of birth. But you, Sir, you're a self-made man."
"Rico: So what else is on your mind besides hundred-proof women, 'n' ninety-proof whiskey, 'n' fourteen-carat gold? Bill Dolworth: Amigo, you just wrote my epitaph!"
