Did You Know?
| Trivia | While shooting parts of this movie in Dublin, some gypsy extras came up to Sir Christopher Lee between takes and inquired about his origins. From the observation of his physical type and the few things Lee told them about his father, their conclusion was that he must definitely have been of some gypsy ancestry himself. Knowing very little about his father's family, Lee gladly welcomed this assumption as a very believable one. See more » |
