Quotes from

Nick Adams: You've already had twelve drinks. How can you be thirsty?
Billy Campbell: [Clasping the side of Nick's face] It's an emotional thirst, not a physical one. You wouldn't understand.


Dr. Henry Adams: Well, Nick, what's a young man's reality is just an older man's dream. Old men dream dreams. Young men see visions.

Facts about

Gary Cooper's death in 1961 prevented him from playing the role of Nick's doctor father.
Cast and crew received word of Ernest Hemingway's suicide at his home in Ketchum, Idaho, while on location in Verona, Italy, a location suggested by Hemingway himself.
The European version is six minutes longer than the U. S. release. Among the deleted scenes include Joe Boulton's suicide by slitting of his own throat, a scene where Rosanna lets down her hair preparatory to presumably having relations with Nick, a suggestion in Nick's scene with her father that Rosanna and he have been lovers, and Nick's scene with a coroner after his arrival back home.
