FILM 1633: SEANCE ON A WET
AFTERNOON
TRIVIA: Bryan Forbes looked
for that house with the turret as a film location; when he went to the owner
for permission, she asked who was in the film. When told that an American
actress named Kim Stanley, the woman blanched, stepped back, and said that
Stanley was one of her oldest friends whom she had not seen in 17 years.
During filming, Richard Attenborough
developed kidney stones and was unable to work for an entire day. Since filming
was on such a tight schedule, director Bryan Forbes got
into costume played his role for some shots.

In an early draft of the
screenplay, Billy and Myra were both male, with director Bryan Forbes planning
to cast Alec Guinness and Tom Courteany as the homosexual couple. Both actors
turned the film down, however.
