According to Harry Hamlin, prior to choosing to do this movie, he was considering doing another project with Richard Burton, a movie adaptation of the story of Tristan and Isolde that became Lovespell (1981). He ultimately gravitated towards what became this movie, despite not knowing anything about it, for the opportunity to work with Laurence Olivier, the one actor he considered even greater in stature than Burton.
