Shirley MacLaine did not get along during the shoot with director Don Siegel, with whom she openly fought.
Elizabeth Taylor turned down the title role.
Hogan (Clint Eastwood) has on the same gun belt and holster that Eastwood as "The Man with No Name" wore in the "Dollars" trilogy (the three Spaghetti Western movies directed by Sergio Leone).
Shirley MacLaine gets top billing in the credits (both opening and closing). This was the last time Clint Eastwood received second billing - or anything less than first - until A Perfect World (1993), and the only time his leading lady was played by an A-list star until The Bridges of Madison County (1995).
This movie's title is actually a pun. Sara's initial transportation is a mule, that becomes lame, and she trades it for a younger and smaller burro, which is not technically a mule. So, the second "mule" of the title may be Hogan, who Sara says "You're as stubborn as my mule." Later, she calls Hogan, "Mr. Mule".
"Sara: Don't you want a woman of your own? Hogan: What for? Sara: To share your name, bear your children, be a companion. Hogan: To ask me to quit drinking, quit gambling and save my money? And to bitch about her aches and pains all day? No thanks!"
"Hogan: Sister! This here is a cathouse! Sara: Oh no, Hogan. This is no cathouse. This is the best whorehouse in town!"
