Gene Wilder initially felt uneasy doing the film, despite the producers making changes to accommodate him and Pryor. He was worried the film would mock people with disabilities, but started to change his mind when, during research and meeting with real deaf people, he was told, "people with handicaps do have a sense of humor". While the film inevitably upset some people, he was encouraged by letters from people saying they thought it was a nice change to see people with disabilities as the heroic central characters, as opposed to being mere background characters.
