What's left behind the scenes
- Billionaire Howard Hughes suffered from a mental disorder in the second half of his life. One manifestation of this was an obsession with watching the film "Polar Station "Zebra". It is known that he equipped a home cinema in the penthouse of the hotel where he lived and re-watched the film more than 150 times. According to Paul Virilio, who studied this phenomenon, the infinite re-viewing of a single film manifested as a kind of escape from reality into a fictional world, which led to a breakdown of personality.
- In one scene, Patrick McGoohan (1928-2009) had to dive into the flooded torpedo compartment of a nuclear submarine and rescue a crew member trapped there. McGoohan was an excellent swimmer and insisted on performing the scene himself, rather than using a stunt double. The script was urgently changed to have McGoohan's character act in this scene not alone, but with the character of Murray Rose (1939-2012), who was an Olympic champion. This proved to be a very successful decision, as at one point, when the actors were standing waist-deep in water that was still rising, McGoohan's leg became stuck, and Rose had to dive to free his partner's leg.
