Trivia
The filming in Canary Islands
Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, the capital of Gran Canaria, where some scenes were filmed, was ranked as the city with the best climate in the world in a 1996 scientific study called "Pleasant Weather Ratings" by Thomas Whitmore, director of research on climatology at Syracuse University, New York. One of the main reasos why so many film productions choose Canary Islands for their shootings.
Casablanca
The moroccan city of Casablanca (in the context of WWII) plays a big role in the movie although the stand in for this city was Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Canary Islands.
The changes
In the original script, Max was a French-Canadian counter-intelligence agent. After Brad Pitt was cast, the character became a British agent
