    • Trivia
      Very few people know that this movie (along with the 1957 version and the 1946 version) are loosely based upon a short story by Mark Twain called "The Million Pound Bank Note", published in 1893. The story line in the book, and the three movie versions, basically only share the theme of the "bank note" or "check" that cannot be cashed or spent.
    • Goofs
      In the beginning of the movie, the babe in the convertible gives Juan the soda can you can see the billboard in the background read. Juan go to 11300 vanit, but that was not to be seen until Juan gives the check back 30 days later.

    The movie is good. My biggest issue with the movie is all the religious commentary.
