The scene in which Ross and Frank break in a mustang was actually mostly real. Blake Edwards wanted the action to be as believable as possible so he had them train as horse wranglers in Iceland for five weeks before filming. At one point you can see a dark patch where William Holden later admitted to having wet himself 'just a little bit'.
One of the rare instances where Blake Edwards collaborated with another composer instead of his regular musical associate, Henry Mancini, who was working on another movie. In this case he used Jerry Goldsmith.
Kim Stanley was originally cast as Nell but due to her erratic behavior and a nervous breakdown, she was replaced.
Filming for this picture took place in Nogales, Arizona exactly 30 years after William Holden had shot his first western, Arizona (1940), also in Nogales. That Columbia Pictures release became one of the most successful films of its year, and strengthened the young actor's career.
The original poster for the initial release of the picture had Holden and O'Neal riding on the same horse with O'Neal's arms around Holden - as can be seen in the Photos section here. However, this generated speculation of a homosexual relationship between the two characters, so the studio withdrew that poster and replaced it with the one showing them wielding and firing revolvers.
"Ross Bodine: You show me an old cowboy, a young cowboy or an in between cowboy with more than a few dollars in his poke and I'll show a cowboy that stopped being a cowboy and robbed banks. Frank Post: Well, let's rob us a bank. Ross Bodine: It'll be safer than getting married."
"Frank Post: How old are you? Ross Bodine: I'll be 46 in July. I'll be 50 in July. Frank Post: Oh, my God. Do you realize in 25 years I'll be just like you? Ross Bodine: What's wrong with that?"
