The scenes set in Africa and Sicily were shot in the south of Spain (Almeria), while the winter scenes in Belgium were shot near Segovia (to which the production crew rushed when they were informed that snow had fallen).
Scenerne i Afrika og Sicilien blev optaget i det sydlige Spanien, mens vinterscenerne i Belgien blev optaget nær Madrid (hvortil produktionsfolkene hastede, da de fik at vide, at det havde sneet).
