It’s Brooke Shields before she got “old.”
- Because of the belief that the "heroic man is supposed to be taller than the woman", Brooke Shields spent much of this movie walking in trenches dug into the beach. This was due to the fact that, despite being only 14 (compared to Christopher Atkins' 18 years), Brooke Shields was already 5'10", dwarfing Chris Atkins height of 5'6". Years later, they would appear on an awards show, this time she standing her full adult height of 6', prompting his comment of "it's like having the 'Statue of Liberty' standing beside me".
- After the film’s release, Brooke Shields, still a minor at the time, was called to testify before a U.S. Congressional inquiry to confirm that older body doubles were used in nude scenes.
