Trivia
One of the first theatrical feature films of actors Richard Gere and Tom Berenger. The picture was Gere's first stud role, something which would become a trademark of Gere's early career with Breathless (1983) and American Gigolo (1980).

Goofs
In the book, Theresa's sister Katherine goes to Puerto Rico to procure an abortion during a scene that takes place in the mid-1960s. In the movie, the timeline is changed so that this scene is set in 1975, two years after abortion was legalized by the Roe v. Wade ruling, making the trip to Puerto Rico unnecessary.
