Location filming for the movie's terrestrial scenes was done primarily in North Hollywood and at the old Mae West estate in Sherman Oaks, California. The Kid with the Broken Halo provides young Coleman with his finest role to date and admirably exhibits the growth he has achieved in his craft since his initial exposure to national TV audiences in NBC's hit series, Diffrent Strokes. Many fans of Gary-Coleman write letters inquiring of the 13-year-old's I.Q.

The term "genius" is often used because of Gary's vocabulary consisting of polysyllabic words. Gary, at 5, took an I.Q. test at Children's Memorial Hospital where he was a kidney patient and was rated a genius. However, later as a student at Shiloh Park School in Zion, Illinois, he scored in the 137-137 range, well above the average but not on the genius level. The school principal, Robert Fink, said when Gary entered kindergarten, he was more advanced than most other students in his grade, "I was amazed at his natural intelligence," Fink who was quoted as saying in the biography, "Gary Coleman: Medical Miracle," written by the Colemans with Bill Davidson.

"He could read and write, actually print, at third grade and was a natural leader from the very beginning. Even when he had to take a day or two off to go to the hospital, he never had any trouble keeping abreast of the rest of the class," said Fink. Fink teaches kids chess as a learning tool and learning chess was easy for Gary who played the game with his father and grandfather. The latter said, "At six, Gary could play. He never beat me, but he sure did know how to move the pieces around.

He never confused a bishop with a knight." Dr. Peter Lewy, a kidney specialist, thinks there is a correlation between Gary's illness and his intelligence. "There's no explanation for it scientifically," he said, "but there seems to be a compensation factor in mental prowess for children who have undergone kidney transplants. The bright ones, become Asked about his own intelligence, Gary responds, "If you ask me if I'd rather be short ahd smart or tall and dumb, I'd have to saytTll take tall and But I realize I don't have control over that, so I'll take it like it is."
