Yep, in the movie there's a vague reference to it when he - in the beginning of the movie - goes over to Goldie's appartment and she tells him she heard shots in the canyon and he tells her it's a big canyon.
And yes, he and Julie Christie were together until 1973/74, with a short break somewhere in the middle of their relationship. After they parted their romantic ways for the last time, Julie still starred with him in "Shampoo" and "Heaven Can Wait". They're still the best of friends (as he is with most of his exes).
Joan Collins was 4 years his senior. Shortly before their relationship (they were engaged for a short while) ended, she discovered she was pregnant. He had just made his breakthrough with his first 2 or 3 movies, she was rumored to get the part as Cleopatra in the movie that later starred Elizabeth Taylor, so she had an abortion. He was then in his early/mid twenties, she 4 years older.....
