Interesting facts

A Long Return, also known by the title Largo Retorno in Spain, is a 1975 Spanish romantic film, directed by Pedro Lazaga with music by Antón García Abril. It is based on a novel by author and playwright Germán Ubillos.

Production

Lynne Frederick got the part of Anna largely because she had the ability to cry out of either eye on cue. Due to the production's low budget, many of the outfits that Frederick wore in the film were from her own personal wardrobe. She recycled some of these outfits a year later when she starred in the film Schizo (1976).

Alibe Parsons dubbed Frederick’s singing voice for the English soundtrack. The songs on the Spanish soundtrack were performed by vocalist, Mariví Navarrete. The film's score never had an official soundtrack release and, like the movie, remains obscure.

The film was shot in Madrid, Segovia, Venice and Mallorca, in 1975.
