Martin Scorsese was attached to direct but pulled out to do Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974).
The title was changed from "The Gravy Train" to "The Dion Brothers" after audiences at sneak previews and other early screenings indicated that they thought the original name sounded like a movie about dog food (Gravy Train being the name of a well-known American pet food).
