Interesting facts

Touch and Go is a 1986 American romantic comedy-drama film directed by Robert Mandel, starring Michael Keaton, María Conchita Alonso and Ajay Naidu.

Production

The film was wrapped in late 1984 and intended for a 1985 release but then shelved, due to a change of studio representation–from Universal to Tri-Star–as well as extensive rescoring and reassembling of promotional ads during post-production. Producer Stephen J. Friedman spent a year negotiating a switch in distributors from Universal to Tri-Star while the film was stuck in limbo. It was then released in late 1986.
