He just  wanted to see how much food Bennett could lower before he became too  stuffed. As soon as the joke was revealed, Huston added insult to  injury by calling for a lunch break.  Filmed in Mexico, though Warners studio head Jack L. Warner (qv)  had the unit return to Hollywood when the budget started to exceed  $3 million (Warner, however, did admit that he thought the film was  one of the greatest ever made).
