It took three years to create the film. To pay the bills, Orson Welles (1915-1985) appeared in supporting roles in other films, notably in Henry Hathaway's (1898-1985) melodrama 'The Black Rose' (1950). During filming with Hathaway, he regularly pilfered costumes and equipment from the set for use in his own film, which greatly irritated the director.
The murder of Rodrigo in the Turkish baths was shown this way because the costumes prepared for filming were confiscated due to debts.
In 1992, Wells' daughter Beatrice spent over $1 million restoring the film. The picture quality was improved, the sound was re-recorded, and new sound effects were added.
