Pop Band Air Supply were playing racquet ball in Sydney during the filming of a scene in the same complex. After meeting Cheryl Ladd, she suggested to the bands songwriter, Graham Russell, to write a title song called 'Now and Forever' for the movie. He delivered the song the next morning and Air Supply recorded it later that afternoon.
The movie was classified for classification in Australian with the Australian Censorship Board on 1st July 1982 with a running time of 101 minutes. The picture, apparently in a different version, was later re-submitted, and classified again on 1st March 1983, with a reported running time of 92 minutes. As such, it appears that the original longer version was cut down by about 9 minutes, and this longer cut never appears to have ever being released commercially.
The picture was a commercial financial failure at the Australian box-office in 1984 and only received a very limited release there.
The film was made and first released about five years after its source novel of the same name by Danielle Steel had been first published in February 1978.
