Trivia:
Trained at the RADA, Ronald Pickup made his London theatrical bow in 1964. Since that time, Pickup has played an abundance of Shakespeare on stage and television: his bravura 1984 performance as Titus Andronicus on the BBC/PBS Shakespeare Plays series can make the flesh creep even when one is only thinking about it. In films from 1968, Pickup has played such prominent roles as Stravinsky in the 1980 biopic Nijinsky. Even busier on television, he was seen as Randolph Churchill in the 1975 biopic Jennie and as Whitlock in the 1994 TV-movie Gone With the Wind-sequel Scarlet. He is also a regular or semi-regular in quite a few British TV series: Moving (1985), Oscar (1986), Fortunes of War (1987), Not with a Bang (1990) and The Riff Raff Element (1994). Additionally, Ronald Pickup has supplied the voice of Aslan in the TV adaptations of C.S. Lewis' "Narnia" stories.

Trivia:
While a film student at UCLA, writer/director Colin Higgins made a short subject for his master's thesis. That short was later expanded into the 1970 feature film Harold and Maude, which also represented Higgins' debut as a producer. Combining Higgins' two favorite movie elements, slapstick comedy and sudden death, Harold and Maude was a box-office failure but an almost instantaneous cult success. Five years later, Higgins scored his first tangible movie hit, Silver Streak (1975), which characteristically used a suspense-film plotline upon which to mount several first-rate comic sequences. The same formula was applied to Higgins' next moneymaker, Foul Play (1978). Higgins' dark streak was never more pronounced than in the feminist comedy Nine to Five (1980), which became Higgins' most successful film yet, winning him the plum assignment of directing the movie adaptation of the Broadway hit The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. Overlong, overloud and badly cast, Whorehouse turned out to be Higgins' biggest flop, as well as his last theatrical film. Shortly after serving as producer and screenwriter for Out on a Limb, Colin Higgins died of AIDS at the age of 47.
