Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe poetry written by Simon Templar's long-haired artist character, Thomas Moore, was actually written by Val Kilmer.
- GoofsWhen Emma is looking through suspect sketches at New Scotland Yard with the two detectives, the female detective says that the suspect is known by many different names, including "Louie" (or "Louis") "Guanella". Emma's response is "Of course... all the names of Catholic saints." In the case of "Louie Guanella", this is incorrect. Luigi Guanella was a Catholic priest from Northern Italy (b. 1842, d. 1912). Guanella was beatified in 1964 but has not yet been canonized (made a saint) by the Roman Catholic Church. He is therefore referred to as "Blessed Luigi Guanella", not Saint (Luigi) Guanella.
- Quotes
Emma Russell: Who are you?
Simon Templar: Nobody has a clue. Least of all me.
- Alternate versionsUK versions are cut by the BBFC with a minor edit to a shot in a nightclub where Tretiak is seen to visibly snort a line of cocaine on a mirror.
