 Before director James Hill (I) (qv) was replaced,  Otto Preminger (qv) filmed an unbilled cameo as a favor to  producer Alexander Paal (qv), who had been a still photographer on  Premingers films _Exodus (1960)_ (qv) and  _Cardinal, The (1963)_ (qv). Preminger believed his cameo was  discarded when Hills scenes were reshot by replacement director  Richard Thorpe (I) (qv).
