Although this film was a box-office failure, it did very well in the home video market. According to Billboard magazine, this film was one of the Top 20 most-rented films in 1995.
Standees sent to movie theaters for display were sent in a box marked "The Walt Disney Company" and featured a close up of Jane March's face in an obvious erotic embrace.
There was a major battle between Richard Rush and Andrew Vanja about who had the better version of the film. So what happened was that Rush prepared his 139 minute version and Vanja prepared his own 121 minute version. They made a bet as to see whose version would fare the best and Vanja allowed Rush to set a place, a date and a theater where the two versions of the film would play. Rush chose San Francisco as the city where both versions would be played on the same date but at different times. After that day was over, Rush won the bet because many felt his version was the more coherent of the two without question.
Jane March stated that she "wasn't at all comfortable with the nudity" in the film.
Director Richard Rush clashed with producer/financier Andrew G. Vajna over the final cut of the film. Rush wanted his longer, eccentric cut to be released, but Vajna wanted the shorter, and more conventional, 121 minute version released. Vajna eventually got his way.
