Director Sergio Corbucci has gone on record in an interview with
the Italian press that the hatred Klaus Kinski and Frank Wolff had toward each
other in the film was mirrored off-set, with the pair refusing to talk to one
another other during the production. In another example of taking his art too
literally, Corbucci has stated that Kinski deliberately set out to provoke
Wolff so that his hatred of him seemed more genuine in the movie. He set about doing
this by calling him a ‘flthy Jew” and that as a German he hated Jews. Wolff,
who was Jewish, had to be stopped from strangling Kinski.
