 On its release to what were then called "neighborhood theatres" (i.e.  theatres which showed films that had ended their first runs downtown), the  films running time was shortened by having three songs eliminated, "I Still  See Elisa", "The First Thing You Know", and "Gold Fever". This left both Lee  Marvin and Clint Eastwood with only one solo song each. The film was restored  to its original length for its first television showing, and has remained  that way ever since.
