Facts about
C.W.R. Knight was a real life falconer and trained the golden eagle "Torquil" in this film.
In 1947 Emeric Pressburger met the head of the script department at Paramount who told Emeric that they used 'I Know Where I'm Going!' as an example of the perfect screenplay which was shown to any writers stuck for inspiration or who needed a lesson in screen writing.
James Mason was originally cast as Torquil but declined when told he would have to "live rough" in the islands. Ironically Roger Livesey never went to the islands because he was in a West End show at the time. A double was used for long shots and all close ups are shot in the studio.
