豆知識

Where's Jack? is a 1969 British adventure film directed by James Clavell and starring Stanley Baker and Tommy Steele. It was written by Rafe Newhouse and David Newhouse and produced by Baker for his company Oakhurst Productions.

Production

Financing was provided by Paramount. According to producer Michael Deeley, this was obtained after a pitch made by Martin Baum, Stanley Baker's agent, to Charles Bludhorn, owner of Paramount. Baum described the film as being written by the writers of Point Blank (1967), produced by the maker of Zulu (1963) and directed by the man who made To Sir, with Love (1967) which, combined, made a profit of $45 million.

Peter Bart, an executive at Paramount at the time, says Stanley Baker did the presentation with Deeley and Baum. Bart says Bludhorn believed that expensive films made the most money and was attracted to Where's Jack? in part by its cost, agreeing to finance without reading a script.

Peter Yates said at the time that Stanley Baker was "rescuing" Tommy Steele from Hollywood musicals "to do some acting again". The film was announced in February 1968.

Filming took place in Ireland in June 1968. It finished by September.
