Eastwood said later in interviews that he was very disappointed about the re-cut by MGM because he felt that many of the deleted scenes not only gave depth to the characters, but also made the movie much better.
Eastwood je u intervjuima koje je dao poslije rekao da je bio vrlo razočaran naknadnim izrezivanjima koje je napravio MGM, jer je osjećao da su mnogi izbačeni prizori ne samo davali dubinu likovima, nego i film činili mnogo boljim.
