Glenda Jackson was the first actress to win an Oscar for a role that included nude scenes.
Oliver Reed and Sir Alan Bates were initially apprehensive about filming the legendary nude wrestling scene, due to insecurity over who might have the largest 'member'. To 'prepare', both consumed a bottle of vodka each, and subsequently realized there was little difference between the two. Filming continued with relative ease.
Glenda Jackson was pregnant throughout the shoot. In referring to her nude scenes, she said she'd never had such a "wonderful bosom".
Considered, along with Haskell Wexler's Medium Cool (1969), to be amongst the first mainstream movies to feature male frontal nudity.
The nude wrestling scene posed problems for U.K. censor John Trevelyan, and this movie was only passed after director Ken Russell made some edits to the original print to reduce full-length shots of Rupert and Gerald standing motionless before the wrestling begins and to darken shots of sunlight streaming into the room. The sex scenes between Gerald and Gudrun were also reduced at the censor's request. After the edits were made, this movie was granted an "X" certificate.
"Gerald Crich: And who is "Gudrun"? Gudrun Brangwen: In a Norse myth, Gudrun was a sinner who murdered her husband. Gerald Crich: And will you live up to that? Gudrun Brangwen: Which would you prefer me to live up to, Mr Crich? The sinner or the murderer?"
"Gudrun Brangwen: [having an orgasm] Oh, my God, Gerald! Shall I die?"
