The role of Samantha was played by another actress. Once viewing her footage in the editing room, director Nino Cimino decided that her performance didn't work for the film. He replaced her with Nikki Christie, and six weeks later from the original principal photography, re filmed all Samantha's scenes with Nikki Christie in one day. Both Nino Cimino and Noah Martin had to return to re-film all their scenes with Samantha as well.
Filmed in only two days.
