According a 2005 interview with Edward Albee, the original writer of the play which this movie was based, producer Ernest Lehman hired himself to write the screenplay for $250,000. Also, Albee says that when director Mike Nichols and stars Richard Burton and Dame Elizabeth Taylor read the script, they hated it so much that, unknown to Lehman, they changed all of the dialogue back to Albee's play save two lines: "Hey, let's go to the roadhouse!" and "Hey, let's come back from the roadhouse!" Albee said, "Two lines for $250,000, $125,000 a piece. That's pretty good."
