In the opening scene where Dunbar is supposedly lying on a operating table waiting for the surgeons to attend to his leg, this in fact is Ken Costner's film double. The man at the bottom right of the table is Costner. You never see their faces, as they walk away from the table the camera only shows their backs as not to reveal their identities, the other surgeon is Jim Wilson the producer.
