Production

Filming took place in Los Gatos, California, in 1970, under the working titles A Life for a Life and The Toy Factory. Orson Welles biographer Josh Karp suggested in his book Orson Welles's Last Movie: The Making of The Other Side of the Wind that Welles took the part in the film merely for the pay. The two young British actors, Pamela Franklin and Harvey Jason, met on set and married the same year.
