Screenwriter Horton Foote often took an interest in seeing his plays performed, and had seen a production of The Midnight Caller at The Neighborhood Playhouse in New York City. It was there that he met Robert Duvall, and was impressed by his ability to convincingly play an alcoholic based solely on spending time with and interviewing them, not by any personal experience of substance abuse. Foote and his wife invited Duvall to dinner, and they became friends. Robert Mulligan, upon hiring Foote to write the film, soon came to confide in him many aspects of the production, including his difficulty in casting the role of Boo Radley. It was Foote who suggested Duvall.
