Malick also pointed out that "Kit and Holly even think of themselves as living in a fairy tale," and he felt that was very appropriate as "children's books like Treasure Island were often filled with violence." He also hoped a "fairy tale" tone would "take a little of the sharpness out of the violence but still keep its dreamy quality."
Principal photography took place in the summer of 1972, beginning in July, with a non-union crew and a considerably low budget of $300,000 (excluding some deferments to film labs and actors).
The film was edited by Robert Estrin; Billy Weber is credited as associate editor and both he and the art designer Jack Fisk went on to work on Malick's next three features Days of Heaven (1978), The Thin Red Line (1998) and The New World (2005).
