Did you know
• The poetry written by Simon Templar's long-haired artist character, Thomas More, was actually written by Val Kilmer.
• Simon uses a Nokia 9000 Communicator cell phone. This phone was very cutting-edge when it was introduced in 1996, as it functioned as both a handheld phone and a clamshell pocket computer, complete with a mini-QWERTY keyboard, and several built-in apps.
• The voice of the radio announcer at the end of this movie was Sir Roger Moore, who played The Saint (1962) on British television. The announcer mentions the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), as one of the charities that have been given major donations. Moore was heavily involved with UNICEF.
