Did you know

• Gene Jones nailed his big interview scene in a single seventeen minute take.

• The original conceived ending of the movie with the helicopter pilot committing suicide and killing everyone onboard is very similar to one of the many plans Jim Jones' cult had to commit revolutionary suicide. One of Jones' mistresses took flying lessons and got her pilot's license in case they ever wanted to fill a plane up with People's Temple members and crashing it in the name of the cult.

• This film was shot in chronological order.
