 Outtakes reveal a couple of things. First, Laurence Olivier (qv)  had trouble using the large switchblade made for his character.  Often, he would try to activate it and the blade would not come out.  Second, several actors enjoyed imitating the unique speech patterns  of producer Robert Evans (I) (qv). Years later,  Dustin Hoffman (qv) used that imitation for his performance in  _Wag the Dog (1997)_ (qv).
