Trivia

Elvis Presley had so much debt in early 1967 due to his purchase of a Memphis ranch with up-to-date equipment that his manager, 'Colonel Tom Parker', had to sign the contract for this movie in a hurry so that Elvis could get his one million dollar fee. It was the last time Elvis would get the magic million dollars. See more »

Goofs

Factual errors: As Scott drives along the highway at the end of the movie, he reveals his true identity and shows his driver license. As he shows evidence of his true name, his eyes are listed as brown (brn) when they are bright blue. See more »

Quotes
