What's left behind the scenes

  • Screenwriter Paul Dehn viewed the film as an attempt to look at the American civil rights movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s from an ape's perspective.
  • The film's plot began with a scene of police killing an escaped ape. The police approached the body and saw open wounds and scars covering the corpse, which would have shown the nightmarish conditions of the apes reduced to the status of slaves. This scene was considered too repulsive and was not included in the film.
  • Director J. Lee Thompson tried to film as many long shots as possible, and used black and red colors in the rebellion scene. All of this was necessary to hide the flaws in the actors' ape makeup, as well as to create the impression that battles were taking place between hundreds of extras throughout the city, when in reality it was only a few dozen people in a couple of blocks.
