Note that there is a REAL mystery to the German release of this movie! For the "Das Neue" program, they put an image of scantily clad Sheree Winton (who played the nurse at the blood bank) on the front cover and a second image of her on the back cover! This was not true of the other German program from "Film Buhne", and she is not featured on any other advertising we have seen!
