The French producers desperately wanted Yves Montand for the role of Nicola Sacco, according to director Giuliano Montaldo.
Producer Dino De Laurentiis had tried to set up a version in the early 60's with director Richard Fleischer after they had worked on " Barabbas ". The project failed to materialise and Fleischer sued De Laurentiis for loss of earnings. They would eventually put this behind them , and Fleischer would make " Mandingo " in 1975 with him again, and " Amityville 3-D", " Red Sonja " and " Million Dollar Mystery".
