During filming, news reached Jill Kinmont that her cousin Jimmy Lewis, who had visited her during her hospitalization nineteen years before, suffered a spinal cord injury in a fall and was paralyzed.

The song "Richard's Window" performed by Olivia Newton-John during the ending credits was nominated for a Oscar for best original song.

Jill Kinmont was a technical adviser on the film. Her work included three days on Mammoth Mountain, where many of the ski racing shots were filmed. She was transported on a mechanical "snowcat", with her wheelchair strapped to the back.
