Meg Foster has said that she loved everything about her Stella Cooke character in this film.
Susan Sarandon was initially set to play the role of Stella, but because the original financing fell through and monies had to be raised again from scratch, she was unavailable for the later shooting schedule and had to bow out.
The film features the favorite movie role of lead actor Perry King who played Albert Walreavens.
One of a number of films and TV episodes where real-life married couple Richard Bull and Barbara Collentine play a married couple, in this case Stella's parents.
