Stars Beau Bridges and Ron Leibman both appeared on the 16th October 1973 episode of 'The Merv Griffin Show' (1962-1986) which was broadcast the same year that the movie was first released [See: Edmund Brown, Pamela Mason, Ed Asner, Beau Bridges, Ron Leibman (1973)].
In movie posters for the film, a '$' character formed the letter 's' in the word 'minutes' in the movie's 'Your Three Minutes Are Up !' title logo.
The movie's two stars, Beau Bridges and Ron Leibman, both later appeared in both 'Norma Rae' (1979) and 'Seven Hours to Judgment' (1988), the latter of which Bridges directed.
The movie has often been compared with the later feature film 'Sideways' (2005) as the two pictures share a number of similarities and story elements.
