Behind The Scenes
This film featured the screen debut of Frank Langella, who had previously been a stage actor. It also saw the first of many collaborations between Brooks and Dom DeLuise: they both worked on many of Brooks' films during the 1970s and 80s. Principal filming was done in Yugoslavia, a place Brooks felt was too cold. He went on with the shooting of the film, which later opened to mixed reviews in the U.S.

Famous quotes containing the word scenes:
“Never before has a generation of parents faced such awesome competition with the mass media for their children’s attention. While parents tout the virtues of premarital virginity, drug-free living, nonviolent resolution of social conflict, or character over physical appearance, their values are daily challenged by television soaps, rock music lyrics, tabloid headlines, and movie scenes extolling the importance of physical appearance and conformity.”
—Marianne E. Neifert (20th century)
