What's left behind the scenes
- Woody Allen confirmed the scientific basis of his script idea during a lunch with Isaac Asimov. Allen also consulted with leading science fiction writer Ben Bova to ensure that his futuristic predictions were feasible at all.
- The device used for the injections is actually a desoldering station (used for dismantling electronic components) that was painted white.
- Miles said his world was over when a madman named Albert Shanker seized a nuclear device. Albert Shanker was president of the American Federation of Teachers.
- The rebel hideout was filmed at the Sculptured House. The building was designed and constructed by architect Charles Deaton in the mountains west of Denver. The house was built in 1963, but the interior was not yet finished at the time of filming. In 2004, the house was put up for sale for $10 million.
- Woody Allen originally conceived this story (in which people in the future are forbidden to speak) as a real possibility of creating a modern silent film.
- Woody Allen plays the clarinet on the soundtrack to this film.
- This is Diane Keaton's second appearance in Woody Allen's films. Their personal relationship with Allen ended around the time she began appearing in his films.
- Due to the overly meticulous work on the sets and costumes, the film fell behind schedule and exceeded its budget, which, however, was only 2 million dollars.
- During editing, 35 hours of footage were compressed into the film's 90 minutes, and this work was completed two days before the release.
- According to editor Ralph Rosenblum, Woody Allen shot and then removed a scene in which Miles plays chess with life-sized pieces, and after losing, the chess pieces sentence him to death.
- After the film was released in the French-speaking Canadian region under the title “Woody and the Robots,” Woody Allen added a clause to all his subsequent contracts prohibiting the changing of his films’ titles.
- In 2006, Premiere magazine included this film in its list of “50 Greatest Comedies of All Time.”
- Initially, Woody Allen planned to shoot a three-hour film consisting of two parts. The first part would take place in the present, and the second in the future. But the film company United Artists rejected this concept.
- This film put an end to two planned projects based on H.G. Wells’ 1899 novel “When the Sleeper Wakes,” from which this film was also partially adapted. One was being undertaken by American International, and the other was being produced by George Pal.
- Initially, Woody Allen hoped to film a large portion of the movie in Brazil. However, budgetary constraints forced him to shoot only within the United States.
- The Playboy spread shown in the film features Lina Sjoblom, “Miss November” 1972.
- The ubiquitous image of “our leader” is actually a photograph of 1960s counterculture guru Timothy Leary.
- When Miles passes by the McDonald's of the 23rd century, a number with 51 zeros can be noticed, representing the number of customers served. By comparison, Avogadro's number, which equals the number of the smallest particles (atoms, molecules) in one mole of a substance, is only 23.
- Woody Allen and rock star Alice Cooper are fans of each other's work. They happened to meet in the same hotel while Allen was filming this movie and Cooper was on tour. Allen immediately offered Cooper a cameo role as a hitchhiker, which he accepted (this is not credited in the film).
- Exterior shots of the building where Woody Allen's character lives were filmed at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, USA.
- While Miles is describing artifacts from the 1970s, a dangling microphone is visible.
- Luna's shoes change when she swims across the lake on Miles' back.
- When Miles is stuck in a tree, he is wearing blue jeans, but in the shots before and after, they are black.
- When Miles first awakens from cryogenic freezing, foil is visible under his suit. As he sits up, the foil mysteriously disappears from his neck and chest.
- During the party, Luna suggests everyone go for a swim. But when she and Miles are running from the police, she says she doesn't know how to swim.
- The rubber tires on the Volkswagen wouldn't have survived 200 years outdoors.
- The Volkswagen wouldn't start after sitting in a cave for 200 years. Gasoline typically has a shelf life of 30 days. After 30 days, chemical processes begin that can damage the engine. Furthermore, the car's battery would have long since died.
- A cable pulling the raft is visible in the raft costume scene.
- When Miles tries to escape using the flying apparatus (which is worn on the back), safety cables are visible in one shot.
- When the moon jumps over the creek, it's noticeable that this trick is performed by a man in a wig.
