Trivia
Valérie Quennessen played a working archaeologist. The production secured an unprecedented permission to film at an actual dig at Akrotiri, on the Mediterranean island of Santorini (Thera), believed by some to be the inspiration for Plato's Atlantis. Instructed by a real archaeologist, Quennessen set to work before the cameras in an area of the site selected for light and production values. Quennessen had hardly started when, much to the joy of everyone, she uncovered several pieces of 3500-year-old pottery. They were turned in and added to the scientific collection.

Goofs
When Cathy and Michael arrive at the villa, Cathy has a band-aid on her left arm between the elbow and the outer edge of her arm. This is seen when Michael knees her in the butt. When Cathy picks up the shower head and pretends it is a telephone the band-aid is missing. But when she walks outside with Michael, the band-aid reappears.

Quotes
Lina: Jealousy doesn't show how much you love someone, it shows how insecure you are.

I fell in love with Valérie Quennessen.

This is a great movie for those willing to throw caution to the wind and go for a ride. At first I was into it for the funky love-triangle. I wanted to see how it would turn out. As it progressed I found that I was paying less attention to the sexual aspects of the film and ended up lost in the eyes of Valérie Quennessen. Without a doubt she has the most beautiful soul I've ever seen in a woman's eyes.

The instant it ended I came to IMDb to see what else she's done. Then I learned the worst. Valérie died 10 years ago. I genuinely feel a loss in my heart.

I must be crazy...I must be in love.
