  • During the wedding scene at the end, Harold Russell fluffed his lines during his vows. Rather that calling cut and ordering a re-take, William Wyler liked how natural it sounded and this was the take used.
  • In a scene at Butch's bar, Homer asks Butch if he would play a song for him. "How about 'Lazy River?'" Homer asks. "Remember that?" Hoagy Carmichael, who plays Butch, composed "Lazy River."
  • Harold Russell was first discovered by William Wyler when he saw an army training film called "Diary of a Sergeant" that Russell had appeared in about the rehabilitation of wounded servicemen.
  • This was William Wyler's last film for producer Samuel Goldwyn.
