    • Trivia
      This is a lost film. Only one known 35mm is in existence. This print was discussed on the film's Letterboxd page by a user who claims to have watched the film with Kotto in a private showing, and is also referenced on the film's Lost Media Wiki page.

      Yaphet Kotto, the owner of that lone, referenced print, died at the age of 81 on March 15, 2021, near Manila, Philippines, as told in a March 16, 2021, edition of British entertainment paper, The Guardian, by Andrew Pulver.

      It is assumed that print would be with the surviving estate of Kotto.
