Written for screen by Allan Gittler the New York-based minimalist designer of electric guitars and a virtuoso musician who later changed his name to Avraham Bar Rashi. Gittler was a film editor in New York during the 1960s and 1970s patented a photographic printer for motion pictures wrote a novel called "The Rose-Colored View" and made an 18-minute short film called "New York New York New York" comprised of 700 photo stills and a score that he and jazzman Elvin Jones composed. He died in 2003. Roger Davis an actor in the film notes that it was completed but not shown until a broadcast on ABC in 1972. Davis: "It was written by the late guitar designer Allan Gittler a.k.a.

Kelley Bret Morrison and the Boston garage band The Bagatelle. was an avant-garde 'film fantasy' where Roger played the hero of a popular cigarette commercial campaign who happens to skydive.

ABC televised the movie in 1972 at the height of Roger's popularity on 'Alias Smith and Jones.' Since the film has gone ignored by IMDB and other web sources here are some reflections provided by writer Gittler to 'Vintage Guitar' magazine in 2000: 'I had had enough of my career and quit to ride my track bike through Central Park and write the script of my movie 'Parachute to Paradise.' After the heartiness of 15 weeks of preproduction casting the principal players and 200 extras seven weeks of principal photography writing the music and seven months of editing and doing enormous publicity a fallout with my producer relegated the production to a couple of cans in the laboratory vault.'"
