Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Jaclyn Smith's attempt to break out of Charlie's Angels typecasting—she produced it herself. The 1.0 TMDB rating suggests it... didn't work.
Joan Fontaine's casting as a washed-up star warning younger women is meta-commentary—she hadn't worked in years and famously feuded with sister Olivia de Havilland over Hollywood slights.
