According to his widow, John Belushi was offered the role of Arthur, but ultimately turned it down, fearing typecasting.
The scene where Arthur drives his "racing car" around a track was shot at the now defunct Danbury Fair Racearena in Connecticut. The type of car that Arthur drove was never raced there, it was primarily for Modified stock cars and was one of America's great short tracks. Sadly, despite its great success, the land became too valuable and it gave way to a shopping mall. The Danbury Fair Racearena closed on October 12, 1981, shortly after the movie was filmed.
Movie Goof (continuity error): Position of Arthur's top hat changes in the bathtub scene after Hobson places it on the edge.
Movie Goof (continuity error): Linda steals the tie from Bergman's by itself yet when Arthur helps her into the Rolls-Royce, he hands her a box that contains the tie, which she still has with her when Bitterman helps her out of the car.
