Several reviews claimed that this film is set in Wales, and a Welsh town was the chief location for the movie, but the setting is, in fact, never specified and the accents of the actors in the film cover a wide area across Britain. Although the American William Hurt was praised for learning a Welsh accent, he actually sounds more like an Englishman from the West Country. It is noticeable that all the road signs seen in the film are only in English, whereas road signs in Wales are always in both English and Welsh.
Theatrical movie debuts of Chris Cleary Miles, Nathan Yapp, and Jake Owen. They all played Jimmy/James at different ages, and this role remains their only acting movie work.
Final film of Doris Hare.
