Trivia

Harold Russell's first film role since his dual Oscar-winning performance in The Best Years of Our Lives, a gap of about thirty-four years. Director Richard Donner persuaded the double amputee to take a sabbatical from his work as head of the US President's "Commission for Affirmative Action on Hiring the Handicapped" to appear in the key supporting role of Wings.
