  • The picture was shot in Hong Kong, the United States, Africa and France and has become a cult film.[3]
  • According to Valérie Mairesse, Coluche suggested her as a replacement for singer actress Karen Cheryl (aka Isabelle Morizet), first cast as his girlfriend, when the latter's agent opposed to her involvement in that production.
