Factual error: In the air raid scene at the beginning of the film, the burning car is a 1950s Ford Popular.
Factual error: Captain Walker's plane goes down during the Blitz and Tommy is born on VE-Day, which means Mrs. Walker was pregnant for about four years.
Continuity mistake: Just after Tommy sings under the waterfall (completely soaked) he climbs out the top and emerges completely dry.
Nora Walker Hobbs: What about the boy? What about the boy? What about the boy? He saw it all.
Frank Hobbs: He didn't see it, he didn't hear it, he will say nothing to no one.
Trivia: Ken Russell wanted Christopher Lee to play The Specialist. However, Lee was unavailable, filming The Man With the Golden Gun in Bangkok. Russell eventually cast Jack Nicholson.
