Movie Medicine Facts
Fourteen-year-old Daniel Day was paid £2 to vandalize expensive cars parked outside his local church in Petersfield, Hampshire, an activity he described as “heaven.”
Ian Bannen was fired from the role of Daniel Hirsh shortly after filming began. Apparently, he was so nervous about what kissing another actor on screen might do to his career, he could not concentrate enough to even get going with the part.
Several actresses politely refused the part of Glenda Jackson’s mother, Mrs. Greville, because they thought the project was too risqué. Peggy Ashcroft gladly signed on.
