- Father of Michal Herz and Annelie Herz.
- He was considered as director of Revue na zakázku (1982), eventually directed by Zdenek Podskalský.
- His name is pronounced "Yoo-rai Hertz".
- Despite the fact that he is often mistakenly classified by non-Czech film critics as a member of the so-called Czech New Wave, he was not part of it. He considered the New Wave to be a poser group, and placed himself rather alongside Czech subversive genre filmmakers such as Oldrich Lipský, Milos Macourek, Václav Vorlícek, Jindrich Polák and others.
