After the August 1968 Russian Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia when the film unit had to leave the country, apparently communist newspapers of the day alleged that the production of this movie was none other than a CIA project.
At a cost of $250,000, the movie company, United Artists, blasted a tunnel on the east side of the river Vltava in the town of Davle, Czech Republic.
