YMMV / The Eiger Sanction

• Crosses the Line Twice
  • The openly-gay Miles has a dog named Faggot.
  • Just before sleeping with Jemima, Hemlock jokes that he's doing a lot of things recently that he thought he'd given up. "Like rape for instance. I thought I'd given up rape."
• Harsher in Hindsight: George Kennedy's character has a daughter who had been a drug user. In real life, George's daughter Shaunna was a chronic drug offender. George adopted Shaunna's daughter Taylor in March 2000 when Shaunna was declared an unfit mother.
• Values Dissonance: Even in The '70s the film was hardly politically correct, with Depraved Homosexual Miles and the evil and freakish albino Dragon.
