Facts about

Gregory Peck auditioned for the role of Captain Nemo.
This was the one of the first Disney films shown in a two-hour time slot on television (although very slightly edited). Most previous telecasts of Disney films, all shown on the anthology series Disneyland (aka "The Wonderful World of Color" and "The Wonderful World of Disney") had either featured the films edited down to fit a one-hour time slot or broken them up into two or more one-hour segments shown over a period of several weeks.
