Peter Markle once said that over $100,000 of the film's budget was spent on securing rights to the pop music songs used in the soundtrack, many which were performed by Nicolette Larson.
Filmmaker Peter Markle said of this movie in an interview published in the November 1982 issue of 'American Film' magazine: ''Minneapolis was the ideal place to shoot. Most of the locations were a mile or so from my house, the crew was good and local - and so were the investors, all but one of them from the area. We had a SAG cast and nonunion crew, and people in L.A. can't believe we shot the film for under a million.''
The number of songs sung by Nicolette Larson heard in the film was five. These are: "You Send Me", "Isn't It Always Love", "Give A Little", "Fallen" and "Lotta Love" - the last being the movie's theme song which is played over the opening credits.
The period of principal photography on this picture was a production shoot in Minnesota, USA during 1980 that ran for about four months between May and September that year. Additional photography including inserts, re-shoots and pick-up shots continued into December and then intermittently right up until August 1981.
The picture was financed by twenty-two investors from Minneapolis in the American state of Minnesota in the USA according to an article published in the 29th March 1983 issue of show-business trade-paper 'Daily Variety'. One of these according to the report was an executive for the Minnesota 'Vikings' hockey team.
