Film debut of Jim Kelly. NOTE: Rockne Tarkington, who plays Tank, was originally cast to play "Williams" in Enter the Dragon (1973). However, the part ultimately went to Kelly and jump-started his career.
Although Enter The Dragon said "introducing Jim Kelly", it was actually released one year and three days after the New York premiere of Melinda.
Jeannie Bell's debut.
This was Hugh Robertson's feature directorial debut. MGM gave him the assignment as a reward for his brilliant editing of the previous year's "Shaft."
