Although technically not credited as such, Burt Lancaster was virtually a producer on the film, helping bring it to screen, taking a percentage instead of an upfront salary and having a say in the editing stages.
Robert Aldrich privately admitted that he wasn't entirely satisfied with the way the film turned out.
In an u interview, Bruce Davison recalled how he got the part of Lt. DeBuin: "I went in to see [director] Robert Aldrich (I) and said, 'Mr. Aldrich, you have no idea how much The Sand Pebbles (1965) meant to me'. He said, 'Thanks, kid, but Robert Wise (I) made that film. But you;re just dumb enough, you have the part".
Filmed for $1.2 million in only seven weeks, a good three to four weeks less than most of Robert Aldrich's movies.
The UK DVD release has been re-edited to remove all instances of horses being trip-wired. According to the British Board of Film Classification, such a tactic contravenes the 1937 Cinematograph Act (following the carnage of the flying W in The Charge of the Light Brigade (1936)), which forbids the ill treatment of any animal in the making of a film (although some stuntmen claim that the method can be performed without harming any horses).
"Lt. Harry Garnett DeBuin: Do you hate Apaches, Mr. McIntosh? McIntosh: No. Lt. Harry Garnett DeBuin: Well, I do. McIntosh: Well, it might not make you happy, Lieutenant, but it sure won't make you lonesome. Most white folks hereabout feel the same way you do. Lt. Harry Garnett DeBuin: Why don't you feel that way? McIntosh: It would be like hating the desert because there ain't no water in it. For now, I can get by being plenty scared of 'em."
"Lt. Harry Garnett DeBuin: Well, what's the point, Mr. MacIntosh, if we can't close the gap. McIntosh: Remember the rules, Lieutenant. The first one to make a mistake gets to buryin' some people."
