José Luis Garci wanted to cast Alfredo Landa and José Sacristán, but both actors refused because of professional rivalry between them. By the time the film was produced, Garci also worked as radio presenter on Antena 3 Radio. Some of the uncredited actors we can see in the film are actually presenters on the same radio station.

Awards

The film was an Academy Award nominee as Best Foreign Film.[1]
