Trivia
The poor audio quality of Orson Welles' dialogue was apparently due to his recording all his lines in one night in Rome whilst drinking white wine. In 1979, Welles claimed his voice in the film was re-dubbed by another actor. This was true for some versions of the film.

Goofs
As the men run from the jolly boat, a shell lands and explodes nearby. However, this is impossible as the pirates were shooting cannonballs, not exploding shells.

Quotes
Billy Bones: They'll be a sea mist tonight, and maybe horrors climbing up at us, outta the sea onto the land. Keep watching!

This is the BEST adaption i've ever seen of TREASURE ISLAND!

I love this film! It is so great! I was sitting on my couch eating Ruffles potato chips when this film called TREASURE ISLAND came on! I was caught up in it all the way! I especially love the way Maria Rohm plays Mrs. Hawkins! She is so sinister in her role that it makes me glad! I hope that this film will come on again! I love the smell of it!
