Continuity: Once Edwinas soul has entered Terry Hoskinss body, it makes no sense that she would still have a British accent. Victoria Tennant masks her accent immediately after the event, but lapses back into it when she says, “I love it when you talk like a beer commercial.”
Trivia: There are 7 entries in the trivia list - like these:
- The computer seen in the film was the payroll computer at the studio.
- Though the writers could not have known it, the first useful electronic “supercomputer” was also called “Colossus”. The Colossus Mk2 was used by the British to decipher German radio transmissions in WWII, and was kept a secret until 1974.
- When the executives at Control Data Corporation found out that Universal was planning a major movie featuring a computer, they saw their chance for some public exposure, and they agreed to supply, free of charge, $4.8 million worth of computer equipment and the technicians to oversee its use. Each piece of equipment carried the CDC name in a prominent location. Since they were using real computers - not just big boxes with a lot of flashing lights - the sound stage underwent extensive modifications: seven gas heaters and five specially-constructed dehumidifiers kept any dampness away from the computers, a climate control system maintained the air around the computers at an even temperature, and the equipment was covered up at all times except when actually on camera. Brinks guards were always present on the set, even at night. The studio technicians were not allowed to smoke or drink coffee anywhere near the computers.
