March 7, 1964 –
John Frankenheimer’s under-appreciated almost documentary-like thriller set set during WWII, The Train, opened on this date.
Burt Lancaster took a day off during shooting to play golf when the production was about half completed. On the links, he stepped in a hole and re-aggravated an old knee injury. In order to compensate for the injury, John Frankenheimer had Lancaster’s character shot in the leg, thus enabling him to limp through the rest of the shooting.
