Stella Stevens revealed once that, being from Mississippi, there was a big resentment towards her in the South because her character had sex with and fell in love with Jim Brown's character. She said she heard that a man in a theater in Memphis stood up, screamed "You slut!" at her on the screen, then walked out of the theater.
One of Jim Brown's three favorite films he starred in: the other two are The Dirty Dozen (1967) and Mars Attacks! (1996).
Stella Stevens said in an interview that when Jim Brown filmed his sex scene in 100 Rifles (1969) with Raquel Welch, he had a towel put between them because he didn't want their skin touching while they were naked. However, when she and Brown filmed their nude sex scene, they didn't have anything between them except "good feelings and fun."
In a 2004 interview, Stella Stevens said co-star Rip Torn was the most horrible actor she'd ever worked with in her life. They shared a dressing trailer, and one day she came out of the bathroom and he was grinning ear to ear. He told her, "Oh, I love to hear you pee."
Stars Jim Brown, Stella Stevens, and Marlene Clark all passed away in 2023.
