What's left behind the scenes
- A film adaptation of John Ball's "A Hot Night in Caroline".
- Sidney Poitier insisted on filming in Illinois, remembering how he and Harry Belafonte (singer, actor, and activist) were nearly killed by the Ku Klux Klan in Mississippi. The film was shot in Illinois, but the filmmakers once had to travel to Tennessee because there were no cotton plantations in Illinois where they could shoot some scenes. During filming in Tennessee, Poitier slept with a pistol under his pillow. Local racist organizations issued threats, and the film crew quickly returned to Illinois.
- The first major, full-color Hollywood project that took into account the participation of an actor with dark skin. Understanding that conventional lighting would inevitably cause glare on the skin of such actors, cinematographer Haskell Wexler (1922-2015) reduced the lighting in scenes with Sidney Poitier.
- The scene in the sheriff's house used dialogue that was improvised by Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger (1925-2002) themselves.
- The film is set in Mississippi in the summer, but was shot in Illinois in the fall. Therefore, the actors had to hold ice cubes in their mouths and spit them out before filming each take so that steam from their breath wouldn't be visible on screen during night scenes.
- A film adaptation of John Ball’s “A Hot Night in Carolina”.
